Hi to Serge (welcome to Pivot) and to all, just a quick note:

I think it would be a good thing.

Many months ago I tried an experiment, writing a simple annotation
that at Compile time could be used to mark an instance variable to be
injected with a wtkx resource (and maybe at different check levels,
like check only for existence, check for validity, etc) but at that
time we weren't on Java 6 and so it wasn't fully integrated in builds.
Now things could be simpler for us, so what do you think ?

In any case I think we should find some way to improve error-checking
at compile time, because at runtime something can always be missed.
This was one of major complaints on Spring and other XML based
frameworks (but now with heavy usage of annotations of much better).

Bye,
Sandro
