I agree - you can move mine to a -1 ...

Let's close this vote: +1: Balazs Bence Sari, Attila Doroszlai 0: Nate Cole, Jonathan Hurley -1: Attila Magyar, Robert Levas Since most developers didn't express any opinion, but would be affected by the change, I take your silence as a "no".

Re: [VOTE] add FreeBuilder to Ambari
-1. I hate to squash other engineers ideas, but it seems that the advantages this package brings to the table does not outweigh the disadvantages. I agree with others that posts to this thread about requiring an IDE to rely on a third-party tool to generate code. If something breaks, we are dead in the water for a while - whether we are waiting for someone to fix the issue in the tool or whether we need to rewrite code to rip it out. Also, what about debugging? If there is a bug somewhere and it happens to be in or near the generated code (or the meta-code used to generate the actual code), how easy or hard would it be to access, read, or walk-through that code. Or what if the code generator had a bug generating code. We will either need to wait for a fix in the generator or figure out a work-around. It just seems to me that there is more work around using this tool then it is to just manually create the classes. On that note, how many classes are really that simple that we need such a tool?

Re: [VOTE] add FreeBuilder to Ambari
I lean towards -1 a bit. It looks to me that this tool solves a not too difficult problem but solves it in a not too ideal way. And it’s hard to predict what will be the implications of using this in the long run. Builders can be generated by IntelliJ or written by hand quite easily. Although this will add some extra code, but the complexity of that code is very low and hand written builders are easier to customize. If there was built in language support for this then I would use it, but I wouldn’t add a 3rd party dependency with all of its potential liabilities for solving an otherwise easy problem.

0 - I’m indifferent to this, but would like to understand the need. Is this to gain convenience for equals(), hashCode(), toString() and the like or does Ambari face a real problem that this is addressing?
