Rather than having a single presenter this evening we will be having a discussion about what makes for good Architecture and Design. Since this is a topic I think we all have an opinion on, it should be a very lively discussion.

Tuesday April 19th, Java Code Generation ( that doesn’t suck )

david — Thu, 14 Apr 2011 11:48:54 +0000

This month at the OJUG Stephen Haberman will be presenting on java code generation. Stuff like generating real .java files by running a command line (like joist), hooking this up in Eclipse to happen automatically (likegwt-mpv), or using Eclipse APT to do generation on-save based on annotations (like bindgen), or finally hacking the compiler itself to do AST manipulations (like projectlombok).

It’s sure to be a great and interesting talk.

As usual Gallup will be hosting and Tek Systems will be providing dinner for us all.

Hope to see you there.
