Re: Annotations Stripping or Transformation at Build time

[Raja Nagendra Kumar]

Hi Matt, Thank You for the directions. Most the tools, which work in these contrained devices, does not work on byte code. hence transformation the source code is essential in my case. Also, more essentially, source code helps in better debugging with break points with IDE's. Any ant task which does source code transformation by eliminating all the annotations and gives the rest of source code is what am looking to.

There is a project in the Apache Commons sandbox, the [weaver] component, which provides a general infrastructure for performing bytecode transformations. An Ant task is provided. It might be fairly trivial to rewrite 1.5 bytecode to v1.3; I'm not sure.

The need I have is, I want to either strip all the annotations within the java source code as java 1.3 (used for javame) does not support annotations or use Simple xml parser for Android while on server side we can used jaxb. We need to do this, without deplicating the same code at 3 places but with one single source code but with build time manipulations.
