Get rid of JVM dependency in generation tools. #12

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Dependency to JVM is inconvenient for build process, because require quite
significant environment preparations.

Could generators be implemented in C/C++ or at least, gcj compiled?

I would consider this is a non-functional requirement. Generator can certainly 
be
implemented in C/C++ or built with some native java compiler. However, the 
benefit of
it does not worth the cost of additional porting (source code and make files),
upgrading (to follow the upgrade of xerces-c and xalan-C++), testing, and
maintenance. After all, this just changed the issue of JVM dependency to a more
complicated xerces-c (or another XML engine) and xalan-C++ (or another XSLT 
engine)
dependency.
