| Processor Option Input Dialog |
| </h1> |
| <p>The Processor Option input dialog is reached from the <a href="apt_config.html">Annotation Processing |
| preferences pane</a>. It allows processor options to be added or modified. |
| <p>Options entered here will be presented to the processors through the AnnotationProcessorEnvironment |
| interface. Each option will be presented in two forms: as a key/value pair, and as a combined |
| key corresponding to the command-line form of the option, namely "-Akey=value". |
| For instance, an option with key "foo" and value "bar" would be presented |
| both that way and as key "-Afoo=bar", value null. |
| <p>Option values representing paths may begin with a percent-delimited token such as <code>%FOO%/</code>. |
| If the token is the name of a classpath variable, it will be replaced with the current |
| value of the variable at processor execution time. The special value <code>ROOT</code> expands |
| to the absolute path of the workspace. For example, <code>%ROOT%/foo/bar.xml</code> might |
| expand to <code>d:/my_workspace/foo/bar.xml</code>, and <code>%JRE_LIB%/rt.jar</code> might |
| expand to <code>c:/jdk1.5.0/lib/rt.jar</code>. Similarly, the special value <code>PROJECT.DIR</code> |
| expands to the absolute path of the current project. |
| <p>Certain options are automatically provided to the processors; entering them in this dialog |
| will have no effect, since the automatically provided values will override any values set here. |
| The automatic options are described <a href="automatic_processor_options.html">here</a>. |
