Processor Options
Description of all the annotation processor options supported.
These are the annotation processor options supported by the @ProviderFor annotation processor. They are not recommended for normal use but are mainly intended for debugging purposes. They can be accessed by passing the -A{option}[={value}] option in the javac command call.
The options supported are spi_dir, spi_disabled, spi_log and spi_verbose
Use this option if you want to have the provider-configuration file to be written to directory that is not the standard compiler output directory. The provider configuration file will be written to /META-INF/services/. This defaults to the standard compiler output root directory.
N.B. the must be in the form {foldername1}[/{foldername2}] etc. and will be interpreted as a subfolder of the output directory you provided to javac using the -d flag or the default output directory.
These options can be supplied without a value to set them to true. Alternatively you can provide either false or true as value to set them to one of those options. They all default to false.
Via this option it is possible to disable the processing of the @ProviderFor annotation. Other annotations will still be processed normally.
This option turns on extended logging to a log file. Both errors and process updates are logged in a log file located in the same place the provider-configuration file is created.
This option turns on a more verbose form of messaging to the console and of logging to the log file.
