Annotation Type GenerateFullSender

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Target(value={METHOD,CONSTRUCTOR})
public @interface GenerateFullSender

Annotation, that triggers code generator to create a fluent builder interface + implementation for an existing factory method with many arguments. E.g. for method: public MyClass(String a, String b, int c, Object d) { } it will generate fluent API, which can be used like following: MyClassBuilder builder = new MyClassBuilderImpl(); MyClass myClass = builder.a("a").b("b").c(4).d(new Object()).build();
