How to invoke the JDK 1.6 annotation processing engine?

[Todor Boev <t_...@prosyst.bg>]

Hi everyone,
I want to use the new JDK 1.6 annotation processing API directly from 
ant. It seems the present APT task can't do it. The Javac task also does 
not support it. Currently I plan to invoke the java compiler as an 
external process:
"javac -cp "my annotations and processors" -processor "my.Processor" ...."

Regards,
Todor

In Java 1.6, you access the annotation processor by a flag sent to the
compiler. So you can do the same thing in ANT, using the javac ANT task.

		<javac srcdir="${src}" destdir="${src}" excludes="*_.java" source="1.7">
			<classpath refid="lib.path"/>
			<compilerarg value="-Aopenjpa.metamodel=true"/>
		</javac>
