Interface Plugin.WithPreprocessor

All Superinterfaces:

AutoCloseable, Closeable, ElementMatcher<TypeDescription>, Plugin

Enclosing interface:

Plugin

public static interface Plugin.WithPreprocessor
extends Plugin

A plugin that applies a preprocessor, i.e. causes a plugin engine's execution to defer all plugin applications until all types were discovered.

Important: The registration of a single plugin with preprocessor causes the deferral of all plugins' application that are registered with a particular plugin engine. This will reduce parallel application if a corresponding Plugin.Engine.Dispatcher is used and will increase the engine application's memory consumption. Any alternative application of a plugin outside of a Plugin.Engine might not be capable of preprocessing where the discovery callback is not invoked.
