[jira] [Commented] (MNG-7048) Adding a constant class generator.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7048?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17244554#comment-17244554 ] 

Michael Osipov commented on MNG-7048:
-------------------------------------

I looked at the plugin. This is the C/C++ approach. We have Java here. If you have constants, write in a class. If you have dynamic information at compile time use properties files. This is how stuff is done in Java. I highly doubt that anyone will adopt that.

> Hello
> I suggest adding a plugin or a feature in an existing plugin. For automatic creating of a class of constants containing Maven values.
> To date, this requires filtering a properties file which is read at runtime.
> Adding a class allows to have constants and not variables, which are defined at compilation.
> This is a simple example of an implementation.
