A simple annotation processing example

This project demonstrates a simple annotation processor that is built with Kobalt.

There are two modules in this project:

• The processor (processor/)
• The example using the processor (example/)

The processor project defines an annotation Version that lets you specify a version number. When the annotation processor is run, it generates a source file GeneratedVersion.java with a static field contains that version number.

The example project has a single class Example which is annotated with @Version and which then displays the value of the version from the GeneratedVersion generated class.

Build with ./kobaltw run.
