[OFFLIST] Looking for Apache licensed or compatible Java source code
generation tool
Hi Thilo,
I'm a committer to the Apache-Commons Math project. I crossed the
message you've posted recently on the community ML, regarding
automatic code generation. I would be very interested by such a tool,
with no particular restriction on the license (as this would be for
personal use). I was unaware of codemodel. I had a look to the API, it
seems to fulfill my needs. However, before I start using it, I would
like to have your advice. Would you recommend this library? Is there
any other good alternative you would also recommend?
I would be grateful for any hint you could give me on this topic.
Thanks a lot for your time!
Best regards,
Sébastien

Hi Thilo,
thank you for your answer, which was indeed very helpful. I looked
further into codemodel, and really want to give it a try.
Meanwhile, if you ever write something which goes into Apache Commons,
please let me know !
Best regards,
Sébastien

Have you looked into Xtext/Xtend from Eclipse, they allow you to define
models and create templates that can be used to generate java (or not)
artifacts from that.

I haven't looked at codemodel in any detail since for me, the
license is a requirement. So I knew right away that codemodel
wouldn't work for me. All I can say is that unfortunately, it
is the only OS library I found that has such a nice API and is
independent of any particular modeling approach. If you don't
mind dragging in EMF, or if your project needs to run in Eclipse
anyway, you can look at the tools that come with or at least
run in Eclipse. Again, that was not an option for me.
Not sure that helped, but that's all I have. I'm currently
thinking of doing my own library, based roughly on the codemodel
approach. If it ever gets to a stage where it is generally
useful, Apache Commons might be a good home for it. We'll see.
