cn1lib: a library can carry a server half - #6139
shai-almog wants to merge 6 commits into
Conversation
A jar marked with META-INF/codenameone/backend-library is a backend library: a server that depends on one wires its controllers, beans, entities, repositories and migrations as its own, on the JVM (Maven process-annotations, Gradle compileJava) and in the native backend build. The library itself is never processed. A .cn1lib carries the server half as backend.zip; the cn1lib archetype gains a backend module and Gradle cn1libs publish <name>-backend. The merge records what it copied, with each file's size and CRC, so a library upgraded or dropped leaves nothing stale, and a class the module compiled over a merged one stays the module's. The record is restamped after processing, failed or not, because weaving rewrites merged classes in place. Tested by BackendLibrariesTest, backend-cn1lib-test.sh (archetype-smoke, JVM and native) and gradle-cn1lib-test.sh; documented in the developer guide.

ProcessAnnotationsMojoTest runs the mojo with no project; every other helper there allows for that, and the backend-library check did not. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Flutter vs Codename OneSame application, built both ways: Flutter's AOT compile of the gallery, and the identical Dart source transpiled to Java on Codename One. Lower is better for every metric, so a ratio above 1.00x means Codename One is ahead by that factor. android9 interleaved rounds; host load 0.97, 2.06, 1.63

The Metal, tvOS and watchOS suites captured these differently on master before this branch, and the KmpCompat tests had no reference at all. Taken from run 41192866461's artifacts. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
viewSafeAreaInsetsDidChange is not sent to a view a presented controller covers, so a rotation under one left landscape insets in place once the app was back in portrait: forms with a safe area were squeezed between the old notch margins and lost their top inset. The insets are now refreshed wherever the size is (#6080's cn1PublishViewSizeIfChanged). The goldens these broken captures replaced go back to the originals; only the KmpCompat references, which had none, stay. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A cn1lib can now ship server code. Its controllers, beans, entities, repositories and migrations are wired into any server that depends on it, as if that server had compiled them.
How
META-INF/codenameone/backend-libraryis a backend library.BackendLibraries.mergecopies it into the server module's classes before annotation processing: Mavenprocess-annotations, GradlecompileJava, and the nativeBackendPackager. The library itself is never processed, so its generated wiring can't collide with the server's..cn1libgainsbackend.zip(Cn1libMojopacks it,Cn1libInstallerunpacks it to thebackendclassifier). The cn1lib archetype gets abackendmodule, and Gradle cn1libs publish<name>-backendfromsrc/backend/{java,resources}.compileJava. Without that, compile avoidance would skip the merge when a library changes a method body or a migration.cn1-nativefrom a library (jar or directory), so no class is translated twice.Tests
BackendLibrariesTest: 7 tests, including the module-class-wins and rewritten-class cases.maven/integration-tests/backend-cn1lib-test.sh: new, runs in archetype-smoke. A generated cn1lib with an endpoint, service, entity, repository and migration is consumed by a generated server, and checked with@BackendTestand natively compiled tests.gradle-cn1lib-test.shchecks the<name>-backendartifact.Docs: Backend-Beans ("Controllers and beans from a library"), Backend-Data, Advanced Topics (cn1lib contents) and Gradle-Project-Workflow.
