Advanced Annotation Processing with JSR 269

Forget about runtime annotations as used by Java EE 5 or Spring. Their power cannot be compared to advanced compile-time annotations processed by JavaC during compilation. Annotations of this kind change the way we think about Java. They can improve the scalability, performance, and simplicity of our APIs without the hassle of on-startup processing so common in the EE space these days.

In this session, you'll learn how to design an internal declarative DSL in Java, improve the scalability of modular applications, lower startup time, mimic the flexibility of "anything on rails" in plain Java, or simplify your internationalization practices. Learn from Oracle's rich experience with building APIs around annotation processors. Attend the session to understand the power of modern Java.
