Tweaking for Java 9+

[clinuxrulz]

I know this project is deprecated. Is there any chance we can add a config or tweak the generated code to work on Java 9+?

Basically:
import javax.annotion.Generated;
Needs to become:
import javax.annotion.processing.Generated;

In the generated code. Then it should work for Java 9+, but would break Java 8-. Need a way to check which jdk is being used.

Oh wow, it's been a while. I guess I would migrate everything to gradle first.
Does it have to be zerobuilder itself, or can you use one of the other projects mentioned in the readme "crate", "readable", "bean standard"?
It seems easier to do with these.

OK I'll try to convert it to gradle, then it should be easy enough.

Done, had to change the groupId though.
Try with these coordinates:

implementation('io.github.jbock-java:zerobuilder:1.645')
annotationProcessor('io.github.jbock-java:zerobuilder-compiler:1.645')

That is awesome. Thank you!

Been trying to revive an old project with a decades worth of code in it and get it on a new version of java, and there was 100s of classes all using zerobuilder.
On Java 8 my old project takes over 60 minutes to compile. But on the newer JDK its takes 2 minutes. (Performance regression in Java 8 compiler)
