# Gson-Compile
A java annotation processor implementing automated type adapter generation for gson-comments.
The goal of this AP is to
- Support common features such as getters, setters, fields, constructors
- Support modern language features such as records
- Support json5 through gson-comments
- Be compile-time where possible (ideally compatible with proguard)
## Currently supported
- Primitive types
- Adapter generation
- Utility methods
- Strict no-reflection enforcement via `-AgsonCompileNoReflect`
2022-11-01 10:08:03 +01:00
- Comments via `@GComment`

- Records
- Nested serializable types
2022-11-01 13:48:23 +01:00
- Arrays

- Collections (Sets, Lists, Queues, Deques)

- GPrefer to resolve multiple factories/constructors

## Credit
The Gson-Compile processor is based on [gsonvalue ](https://github.com/evant/gsonvalue ) and [value-processor ](https://github.com/evant/value-processor ) by Eva Tatarka.
The API was inspired by [kotlinx.serialization ](https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization ) by Jetbrains

The serialization is powered by [my fork ](https://gitlab.com/JFronny/gson-comments ) of [gson ](https://github.com/google/gson ) by Google
