             Summary: Add @Generated annotation to generated classes
                 Key: THRIFT-1813
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1813
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Java - Compiler
            Reporter: Arvind Jayaprakash


Why?
1. A lot of static analysis tools understand the javax.annotation.Generated 
annotation and treat those classes differently.
1. Setting the date field with the date & comments field with the version of 
the thrift compiler might prove to be valuable for tracing the origins of the 
generated file.

The overheads should be minimal as the retention policy of the annotation is 
purely at a source level
