1. AutoProxy v0.4 Release Notes
Release Date: 2020-06-23 // almost 4 years ago-
๐ The New Version of the library is just released! Welcome to version 0.4!
What is it? AutoProxy is a java annotation processing library inspired by Google AutoValue library. Its main purpose is to generate wrapper around the existing interface or abstract class. (works for Kotlin classes too!)
Why I should use it? Several cases are in use right now:
- make detachable implementations, when needed to redirect calls to NoOp (No Operation) code without other modules failure. ๐ฒ 2. act as a proxy in call and provide developer easy interface to inject side effects. Example: log all calls and parameters of calls ๐คก 3. Class Stubs/Fakes generation (mocks vs fakes)
- Late initialization, when all calls are recorded by proxy, and when instance become available, replay them all on it.
๐ Changes:
- method names generated as @stringdef annotation, that allows verifying usage of constants in IDE (andoridx.annotations). No place to mistakes!
- โ added "create" static method that simplifies the creation of proxy class instance with lambda injection.
- โ added "dispatchByName" method that simplifies call of inner methods inside the predicate's
- โ added flags that allow forcing generation of the helper methods
- incremental annotation processing
