that's why i was wondering about a lombok based bindgen implementation, since lombok is available as apt processor and eclipse plugin :) On Thu, Nov 26, 2009 at 5:13 PM, Igor Vaynberg wrote: > you guys are missing the point. Bindgen is a *standard apt processor*. > it is not an eclipse plugin. a

you guys are missing the point. Bindgen is a *standard apt processor*. it is not an eclipse plugin. all major IDEs have support for annotation processors baked in. refactoring support is definetely *possible*, but it would require an actual IDE pliugin. -igor On Thu, Nov 26, 2009 at 5:20 AM, Mar

Refactoring could definitely be supported in IDEA. With the Hibernate support, when you change a property name it will change your mapping hbm.xml (yes, we still use them) files for you automatically. Same thing happens with the Spring support. The configuration files are changed for you. I don

the pro's of this compared to the SafeProperty is that the safe property needs to generate proxies at runtime so you need CGLIB and you could have issues with final classes this is more a develop environment solution which is because of that a bit nicer. On Thu, Nov 26, 2009 at 10:53, Maarten Bos

Strings do break. Silently. They're the silent app killer. Wouldn't you rather know at compile-time that something is broken? That's the point of using Java over PHP. -- Jeremy Thomerson http://www.wickettraining.com On Thu, Nov 26, 2009 at 1:28 AM, Martin Makundi < martin.maku...@koodaripa

the whole point is that strings brake, whether they are constants or not. eg add(new Label("parentName", new PropertyModel(person, "parent.name"))); suppose you rename Person.getName() to Person.getFullName(). now you have to find all places in your code where you have referenced "name" as part

If refactoring is not supported it is just easier to use string constants, which do not break. ** Martin 2009/11/26 Gerolf Seitz : > as far as i have read, the binding "methods" aren't automatically refactored > (eg. renamed), > but you get compiler errors in the code where you use the "old names

as far as i have read, the binding "methods" aren't automatically refactored (eg. renamed), but you get compiler errors in the code where you use the "old names". so it should be fairly easy to fix your own code (in contrast to some strings) On Thu, Nov 26, 2009 at 8:04 AM, Giambalvo, Christian <
