-
JHipster
JHipster, much like Spring initializr, is a generator to create a boilerplate backend application, but also with an integrated front end implementation in React, Vue or Angular. In their own words, it "Is a development platform to quickly generate, develop, & deploy modern web applications & microservice architectures." -
JavaParser
Java 1-21 Parser and Abstract Syntax Tree for Java with advanced analysis functionalities. -
Immutables
Annotation processor to create immutable objects and builders. Feels like Guava's immutable collections but for regular value objects. JSON, Jackson, Gson, JAX-RS integrations included -
CircleMenu for Android
:octocat: ⭕️ CircleMenu is a simple, elegant UI menu with a circular layout and material design animations. Android UI library made by @Ramotion -
Better Error Pages
Rails like error pages for Spring Boot applications that are only active in development. -
NoException
Allows checked exceptions in functional interfaces and converts exceptions to Optional return.

README
AspectJ
AspectJ is:
- a seamless aspect-oriented extension to the Java programming language
- Java platform compatible
- easy to learn and use
AspectJ enables:
- clean modularization of crosscutting concerns, such as error checking and handling, synchronization, context-sensitive behavior, performance optimizations, monitoring and logging, debugging support, and multi-object protocols
Building
AspectJ has a multi-module Maven build. Although various modules produce intermediate results, the key artifacts at the end of the build are:
aspectjrt
- the AspectJ runtimeaspectjweaver
- the AspectJ weaveraspectjtools
- the AspectJ compileraspectjmatcher
- the AspectJ matcher
These are the artifacts published to Maven Central for each release. In addition, there is an installer that can be run with java -jar
to install AspectJ onto Windows/Mac/Linux. This installer is produced by the installer
sub-module.
In the root of a cloned AspectJ simply run:
./mvnw clean install
You can also use a reasonably recent (3.6.3+), locally installed Maven installation instead of the Maven wrapper script.
This will build all the modules, run all the tests and install the key artifacts in your local repository. Once built, access the Maven dependencies from your local repository or run the installer to install AspectJ locally:
java -jar installer/target/aspectj-<VERSION>.jar
Running the tests in Eclipse
Once you have imported all the projects using m2e
, there is a special module called run-all-junit-tests
and within that a RunTheseBeforeYouCommitTests
class that can be run with the JUnit launcher to execute thousands of tests.
Ensure you run this with a JDK - the more recent the better since some tests will not execute on older JDKs - tests that verify language features that only exist in the more up to date JDK version.
