XDoclet
XDoclet is an open-source code generation library that enables Attribute-oriented programming for Java via insertion of special Javadoc tags. It comes with a library of predefined tags, which simplify coding for various technologies: Java EE, Web services, Portlet etc.
Example
A typical XDoclet comment might look like this:
/****
* This is the Account entity bean. It is an example of how to use the
* EJBDoclet tags.
*
* @see Customer
*
* @ejb.bean
* name="bank/Account"
* type="CMP"
* jndi-name="ejb/bank/Account"
* local-jndi-name="ejb/bank/LocalAccount"
* primkey-field="id"
* schema = "Customers"
*
* @ejb.finder
* signature="java.util.Collection findAll()"
* unchecked="true"
*
* @ejb.finder signature="java.util.Collection findByName(java.lang.String name)"
* unchecked="true"
* query= "SELECT OBJECT(o) FROM Customers AS o WHERE o.name
* LIKE ?1"
*
* @ejb.transaction
* type="Required"
*
* @ejb.interface
* remote-class="test.interfaces.Account"
*
* @ejb.value-object
* match="*"
*
* @version 1.5
