How to treat beans split up into interface and implementation

[hoijui]

So i have two OSGi bundles, one with interfaces, one with implementations.
Lets say, i have public interface Person in one bundle, and public class PersonImpl implements Person in th other.
I would like to generate getters, setters and addPropertyChangeListener() in the interface, and the implementations of those in the class.
Is this possible with JodaBeans, and if so, how?
If not, can you recommend some other library or tool that can do this?
...or am i not seeing some fundamental problem about this idea here?

This is not possible with Joda-Beans. It would take a lot of work to add such a separation, and I'm not likely to do it. The Immutables project may be what you want.

ahh perfect, thanks you stephen! :-)
in the meantime, i have decided to learn scala instead. i am not sure if it solves my problem well, but so far it looks good, and it seems like a language i really would like to get to know anyway.
... but indeed, immutables seems like a good thing for my use-case, should i go back to java with this after all.

My views on Scala are well known, if you are looking for an alternative language, Kotlin is a far better choice.

reading some of your blog, i see that you are (were?) also a fan of fantom. would you nw recommend kotil over fanto? mostly because it has more support/community/market-share? 2018-01-09 18:19 GMT+01:00, Stephen Colebourne <notifications@github.com>:

Fantom is very interesting due to its weak type system. Kotlin is likely to be a relatively major language due to the Android ecosystem, so is a much better choice to learn for practical industry usage as of now.
