Chetan Mehrotra commented on FELIX-3550:
----------------------------------------
Had the annotations been not compile time one could have used ASM ClassVisitor
support similar to what is used by Maven Plugin Plugin to generate plugin xml
[1]. It also allows one to use same infrastructure with non java languages like
Groovy as bytecode becomes the source of truth.

> Reimplement the SCR Generator
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: FELIX-3550
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3550
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Maven SCR Plugin
> Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
> Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
> Fix For: maven-scr-plugin-1.8.0, scr ant task 1.2.0, scr
> generator 1.2.0, scr annotations 1.7.0
>
>
> The current implementation of the maven scr plugin and generator has grown
> over time and is very complex. It makes a lot of assumptions about hidden
> datastructures. This is partially due to the use of QDox in the beginning of
> the plugin
> As we drop the support for javadoc annotations, we can also drop qdox and
> clean up the implementation
> This also makes developing new features easier
