Refactor into Core Generation and Specific Annotation Processing Modules
------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LOGTOOL-11
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/LOGTOOL-11
             Project: Log Tool
          Issue Type: Enhancement
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0.Beta3
            Reporter: Ken Finnigan
            Assignee: David Lloyd


JBoss Solder/Seam would like to use their own annotations for generating message classes instead of those found within JBoss Logging, as recommended by David Lloyd.

At present the Annotation processor in Logging Tools specifically references the JBoss Logging annotations by package and imports them to use in generating the classes.

What we'd like is to create a core processing module that has common functionality that is agnostic of whatever annotations need to be processed, or what methods those annotations may have, and then modules bolted on top of that for specific JBoss Logging annotation processing.

This then allows the creation of a Solder/Seam specific annotation processor module that utilizes the core, without having to fork the entire project to achieve it.

Have discussed this with both James and David, and James is currently working on a prototype.
