lib

A collection of java libraries including:

1. pahakia-fault
   Fault - the once-for-all exception, see blog: http://tri-katch.blogspot.com.
2. pahakia-apt
   Annotation processing at build/compile time.
   All annotated classes are recorded in META-INF/annotated-classes.
   It works both with Eclipse and Maven.
3. pahakia-annotation-registry
   Build a registry from all META-INF/annotated-classes on classpath, keyed by annotation name.
4. pahakia-settings
   Centralize program settings in one place: Settings.
   Individual setting can be defined so that it can:
   
   1. be validated
   2. have default value.
   The library provides the following pre-defined setting descriptors:
   
   1. BooleanSetting: true or false
   2. PatternSetting: pattern in regular expression
   3. RangeSetting: range between 2 integers
   4. ValidValuesSetting: list of valid value strings
   You can define additional setting descriptors by inheriting SettingBase.
   To retrieve a setting value, call a get... method on the setting descriptor, i.e.
   BooleanSetting bs = new BooleanSetting("consider.holiday", "if consider holiday", false);
// NOTE: the above must be defined as constant in a class annotated with @RuntimeSettings.
boolean considerHoliday = bs.getBoolean();
