Andrew Rubinger created SHRINKDESC-119: ------------------------------------------ Summary: Create a Builder SPI Key: SHRINKDESC-119 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SHRINKDESC-119 Project: ShrinkWrap Descriptors Issue Type: Feature Request Reporter: Andrew Rubinger Apart from the SWD object model, we could make it much easier to populate the metadata by introducing a "Builder" (name to be discussed) SPI. The purpose here would be a pluggable mechanism to accomplish code like the following: {code}WebAppDescriptor desc = create(WebAppDescriptor.class) .add(type(Servlet.class) .className("com.acme.MyServlet") .name("MyServletName")) .add(build(Servlet.class) .from(MyServlet.class));{code} Here the WepAppDescriptor gets data added by scanning in annotations observed on the user's MyServlet, relieving the user of supplying the configuration manually.
