Interface Summary Interface Description Completion A suggested completion for an annotation.Filer This interface supports the creation of new files by an annotation processor.Messager AMessagerprovides the way for an annotation processor to report error messages, warnings, and other notices.ProcessingEnvironment An annotation processing tool framework will provide an annotation processor with an object implementing this interface so the processor can use facilities provided by the framework to write new files, report error messages, and find other utilities.Processor The interface for an annotation processor.RoundEnvironment An annotation processing tool framework will provide an annotation processor with an object implementing this interface so that the processor can query for information about a round of annotation processing.Class Summary Class Description AbstractProcessor An abstract annotation processor designed to be a convenient superclass for most concrete annotation processors.Completions Utility class for assemblingCompletionobjects.Exception Summary Exception Description FilerException Indicates aFilerdetected an attempt to open a file that would violate the guarantees provided by theFiler.Annotation Types Summary Annotation Type Description Generated The Generated annotation is used to mark source code that has been generated.SupportedAnnotationTypes An annotation used to indicate what annotation types an annotation processor supports.SupportedOptions An annotation used to indicate what options an annotation processor supports.SupportedSourceVersion An annotation used to indicate the latest source version an annotation processor supports.
