jcodemodel



A fork of the com.sun.codemodel 2.7-SNAPSHOT. The classes in this project use a different package name com.helger.jcodemodel to avoid conflicts with other com.sun.codemodel instances that might be floating around in the classpath. That of course implies, that this artefact cannot directly be used with JAXB, since the configuration of this would be very tricky.

A site with the links to the API docs etc. is available.
