Adds a Roslyn incremental source generator that produces lightweight POCO implementations of configuration interfaces at compile-time, eliminating runtime reflection for basic scenarios.
Implementation
Dapplo.Config.SourceGenerator: Detects
IIniSection/IConfiguration<T>interfaces and generates classes with:INotifyPropertyChangedsupportCreate()factory methodsTest project: Validates code generation and provides usage examples
Usage
Scope & Limitations
Generated implementations provide property storage and change notification only. Does not include:
Use the existing reflection-based API (
IniSection<T>.Create()) for full feature set. This provides a foundation for future metadata pre-computation that will eliminate reflection while preserving all functionality.Quality
