[java] generated framing code

[Steve Vinoski]

I recently emailed about build avoidance issues with the generated  
framing code under common. The way it's done means that it builds  
every single time through, and does nothing at all to try to avoid  
the build if the spec file hasn't changed.

Rajith and I have now both independently run into more problems with  
this code: it won't work under Eclipse. The code is generated into  
directory names that contain spec version numbers (e.g., org/apache/ 
qpid/framing_8_0), but the actual code itself is declared to reside  
in the org.apache.qpid.framing package. This is clearly a no-no, and  
Eclipse refuses to build it.

So, anybody have an idea as to when we'll start using the new code  
generation approach? The code seems to have existed for weeks now,  
but to the best of my knowledge, nobody's stated any intent regarding  
making it part of the normal trunk build.

Also, will this new code address the build avoidance issues and the  
Eclipse issues?

I need to know, because I don't want to go off and fix issues with  
the current stuff if it's all about to be replaced. We have several  
people who want to use Eclipse for Qpid work, and they're currently  
blocked by this.
