[jboss-as7-dev] manual way to do logging?

[David M. Lloyd]

Incorrect - annotation processing happens as a normal part of the javac 
build.  You just have to have the generator on your classpath when you 
compile, same as any other dependency.  You don't even need Maven to 
make it work; our examples just refer to Maven because it is by far the 
most common build system used right now.
