1. Make variables private, and use getter when access is needed.
2. All variables can be made final.
> Option to debug generated Java code using an IDE
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DRILL-5052
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-5052
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Execution - Codegen
> Affects Versions: 1.8.0
> Reporter: Paul Rogers
> Assignee: Paul Rogers
> Priority: Minor
>
> Drill makes extensive use of Java code generation to implement its operators.
> Drill uses sophisticated techniques to blend generated code with pre-compiled
> template code. An unfortunate side-effect of this behavior is that it is very
> difficult to visualize and debug the generated code.
> As it turns out, Drill's code-merge facility is, in essence, a do-it-yourself
> version of subclassing. The Drill "template" is the parent class, the
> generated code is the subclass. But, rather than using plain-old subclassing,
> Drill combines the code from the two classes into a single "artificial"
> packet of byte codes for which no source exists.
> Modify the code generation path to optionally allow "plain-old Java"
> compilation: the generated code is a subclass of the template. Compile the
> generated code as a plain-old Java class with no byte-code fix-up. Write the
> code to a known location that the IDE can search when looking for source
> files.
> With this change, developers can turn on the above feature, set a breakpoint
> in a template, then step directly into the generated Java code called from
> the template.
> This feature should be an option, enabled by developers when needed. The
> existing byte-code technique should be used for production code generation.
