JCompilo

A pure Java 7 (Version 1) / Java 8 (Version 2) build tool with advanced compiler features including:

Extremely fast (faster than all other Java build tools by between 20%-80%)
Post processing of output bytecode
Zero copy Jar creation
Tail-recursion call optimisation (via TotallyLazy or system property "jcompilo.tailrec=your.annotation.Name")
Test support via JUnit
Dependency resolution via shavenmaven which gives us the following features
- Pack200 support (10 x faster downloads)
- Parallel downloads
- No transitives
Supports 100% convention (no build file needed) or customisation in Java code
