     <p>Annotation processors can generate additional Java code or other files, and produce problem markers,
     based on Java 5 (JSR-175) annotations.  The <a href="apt_config.html">Annotation Processing preference
     pane</a> permits configuration of preferences that apply to all processors in a project or workspace.
     The Factory Path preference pane specifies which processors are enabled and permits configuration of
     individual processors.
     <p>The pane displays a list of all the plugins and jar files that contain annotation processors that
     may be applied to the project.  To add or remove jar files from the list, use the corresponding buttons.
     Jar files may be specified by absolute path using the Add External Jars... button, or by path relative
     to a classpath variable using the Add Variable... button.  All installed plugins that extend the
     org.eclipse.jdt.apt.annotationProcessorFactory extension point are also displayed in the list.
     <p>To enable a particular plugin or jar file, select the corresponding checkbox within the list.
     Processors within plugins and jars that are not checked will not be executed.  If more than one processor
     claims the same annotation, only first one on the list will be served that annotation.  To reorder the
     list, use the Up and Down buttons.
     <p>The Advanced... button leads to the <a href="factorypathoptions.html">Advanced Factory Path Options
     dialog</a>, which is used to view the individual processor factories within a plugin or jar file
     and to configure additional options.
