Freeman Yue Fang commented on CXF-8436:
---------------------------------------
Hi [~jurrieovergoor],
Sorry, but I don't see this is a valid improvement.
1. This will break backwards compatibility.
2. With the -mark-generated, the javax.annotation.Generated is added, I believe
the timestamp there is the most important info for this annotation. If you
don't like the timestamp, you shouldn't use the -mark-generated flag.
3.
{code}
-suppress-generated-date
Prevents dumping current date as part of javadocs of the Java files
generated.
{code}
It's clearly stated here the -suppress-generated-date is javadocs thing.
My 2 cents.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-8436
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Tooling
> Affects Versions: 3.3.8
> Reporter: Jurrie Overgoor
> Priority: Major
>
> We are trying to get our build reproducable. We use wsdl2java for generating
> Java classes from WSDL files, and currently have -mark-generated in effect.
> This causes problems, as there are timestamps written to the @Generated tag.
> I hoped that -suppress-generated-date would suppress this, but it only
> affects the generated Javadoc comment.
> Can we get -suppress-generated-date to also suppress outputting timestamps in
> the @Generated annotations?
