 @Deprecated
public @interface Precompile

Use @Precompile to instruct Manifold to precompile classes from a specified type manifold. This is useful for cases where a type manifold produces a static API for others to use. Note you maybe provide more than one instance of @Precompile to precompile types from more than one type manifold:

 @Precompile(fileExtension = "json")
 @Precompile(fileExtension = "yml") 

This instructs the Java compiler to precompile all JSON and YAML in the enclosing module.

The default behavior:

 @Precompile() 

compiles all types from all type manifolds used in the module.

Optional Element Summary

Optional Elements

Modifier and Type	Optional Element and Description
java.lang.String	fileExtension Deprecated. A file extension name e.g., "json", handled by the Type Manifold class defining the domain of types to compile.
java.lang.Class<?>	typeManifold Deprecated. The Type Manifold class defining the domain of types to compile from.
java.lang.String	typeNames Deprecated. A regular expression defining the range of types that should be compiled from typeManifold() or fileExtension() via ITypeManifold#getAllTypeNames().

Element Detail

typeManifold

public abstract java.lang.Class<?> typeManifold

Deprecated.

The Type Manifold class defining the domain of types to compile from.

Use fileExtension() as a convenient alternative way to specify the type manifold via a file extension it handles.

Default:

java.lang.Object.class

fileExtension

public abstract java.lang.String fileExtension

Deprecated.

A file extension name e.g., "json", handled by the Type Manifold class defining the domain of types to compile. This value is an alternative to typeManifold() as a simple way to indirectly specify the ITypeManifold. If both arguments are present, typeManifold() has precedence.

The default wildcard value "*" precompiles types from all type manifolds used in the module

Default:

"*"

typeNames

public abstract java.lang.String typeNames

Deprecated.

A regular expression defining the range of types that should be compiled from typeManifold() or fileExtension() via ITypeManifold#getAllTypeNames(). The default value ".*" compiles all types originating from the specified type manifold.

Default:

".*"
