Hi,
some questions regarding the IDL preprocessor I mentioned in YOKO-320:
Package name:
I would like to create a new package for the IDL preprocessor and be
able to later reuse it in an Idl2Java compiler (YOKO-27). However the
existing code in o.a.y.tools.processors.idl seems to be specifically
targeting WSDL output, so I wonder if
o.a.y.tools.processors.idl.preprocessor is a good package for the
preprocessor. Should I rather use o.a.y.tools.idlpreprocessor? Is the
tools module even the right choice or is tools purely concerned with the
IDL<->WSDL bridge?
Reader vs. InputStream:
The code I have acts as a Reader, not an InputStream. Judging from the
Antlr API, this doesn't seem to be a problem, but I'm not sure about
escape character processing. Can someone confirm that passing a Reader
to Antlr is equivalent to passing an InputStream?
Java 5:
My existing code uses Java5 features (Generics, StringBuilder, etc.). Is
is OK to use Java5 in the tools module?
Thanks,
Lars
