What I am working at is a simple but generic code generator.
It creates a model from different sources (reflection, XML, XMI,
direct integration with IDEs and so on).
So I could use clazz in to ways:
1) Simply use its advanced reflection features to load
my own meta model AND use it when loading from
XML (where I currently use my own hack of BeanUtils code)
2) Additionally reuse the clazz meta model but then I would
have to add a whole bunch of things: Packages as model
elements (because they meight have Attributes),
InnerClasses, CompilationUnits (for Import handling
and type resolving (currently integrated in my MetaClass)),
MetaTypes (again for (lazy) type resolving).
I am quite sure that I will use clazz for the first purpose,
because I am convinced that clazz is on a good way.
But since the focus of clazz is not (yet) the meta model
but the advanced reflection, I am not sure that the different
use cases could or should be aligned.
