  • Method Details

    • getGeneratedClasses

      GeneratedClasses getGeneratedClasses()
      Return the GeneratedClasses being used by the context. Allows a single generated class to be shared across multiple AOT processors. All generated classes are written at the end of AOT processing.
      Returns:
      the generated classes

    • getGeneratedFiles

      GeneratedFiles getGeneratedFiles()
      Return the GeneratedFiles being used by the context. Used to write resource, java source or class bytecode files.
      Returns:
      the generated files

    • getRuntimeHints

      RuntimeHints getRuntimeHints()
      Return the RuntimeHints being used by the context. Used to record reflection, resource, serialization and proxy hints so that the application can run as a native image.
      Returns:
      the runtime hints

    • withName

      GenerationContext withName(String name)
      Return a new GenerationContext instance using the specified name to qualify generated assets for a dedicated round of code generation. If this name is already in use, a unique sequence is added to ensure the name is unique.
      Parameters:
      name - the name to use
      Returns:
      a specialized GenerationContext for the specified name
