Fraclet
Version: 3.2.2 (fraclet-java)
Released: March 19th, 2009
|
-
Fraclet is a Java
programming model for the Fractal component model.
Fraclet exploits the principles of
annotation-oriented programming (@OP) to implement
this model. Thus, Fraclet leverages the process of
writing a Fractal application by providing a set of
annotations, which reduces the amount of code
written by developers.
The current implementation of Fraclet (3.2)
provides the following functionalities:
- Extensive set of Java5 annotations dealing with all the features of Fractal,
- Compile-time transformation of the Java5 annotations using the Spoon source code analysis and transformation tool,
- Insertion of the callback interfaces into the source code (BindingController, AttributeController, LifeCycleController),
- Generation of the Fractal ADL descriptors for primitive components,
- Generation of the Fractal ADL abstract descriptors for composite components.

Former versions
Two versions of the Fraclet framework were formerly developed:
These versions are still available, but no more supported.
Please read the Fraclet migration guide
to migrate to the new annotation set.
