AutoFactory

Enables automatic factory generation for the annotated class, or a class containing the annotated constructor.

When a class is annotated, a primary constructor is used to create a new instance of the class by the generated factory. When a constructor is annotated, it's used to create a new instance of the class by the generated factory.

Annotating multiple constructors or both the class and a constructor is not supported and will produce compilation errors.

Future plans:

• The default name of the generated factory is Factory, but can be changed by providing a different value to the factoryName constructor parameter.

• Default parameter values.

• Generics.
