| Automatic Processor Options |
| </h1> |
| <p>Annotation processor options are configured in the |
| <a href="ref-apt-config.htm">Annotation Processing preference dialog</a>. Certain options |
| are automatically provided to processors using the Java 5 Mirror API; entering them in the Annotation Processing |
| preference dialog will have no effect, since the automatically provided values will |
| override any values set there. The automatic options include the following:</p> |
| <dl> |
| <dt><strong>-classpath</strong></dt> |
| <dd> |
| The compiler classpath. All entries are absolute paths, not workspace-relative. |
| </dd> |
| <dt><strong>-sourcepath</strong></dt> |
| <dd> |
| The compiler source path. All entries are absolute paths, not workspace-relative. |
| </dd> |
| <dt><strong>-d</strong></dt> |
| <dd> |
| The absolute path of the compiler binary output directory, into which .class files are |
| built. |
| </dd> |
| <dt><strong>-s</strong></dt> |
| <dd> |
| The absolute path of the generated source directory, into which annotation processors |
| will generate files. |
| </dd> |
| <dt><strong>-source</strong></dt> |
| <dd> |
| The compiler -source option. Typically a string such as "5.0". |
| </dd> |
| <dt><strong>-target</strong></dt> |
| <dd> |
| The compiler -target option. Typically a string such as "5.0". |
| </dd> |
| <dt><strong>phase</strong></dt> |
| <dd> |
| The string <code>RECONCILE</code>, <code>BUILD</code>, or <code>OTHER</code>, depending |
| on whether the processor has been called during editing, during a build, or outside the |
| context of compilation, respectively. This option is only provided when running in the Eclipse IDE. |
| </dd> |
| </dl> |
| <p>Except for <code>phase</code>, there are no automatically provided options for processors |
| using the Java 6 annotation processing API, because the JavaFileManager methods provide the same functionality.</p> |
