Generating libraries for reflection without project compilation

摘要

A stripped-down version of a library is generated from server source code extracted from a server project under development. Information extracted from the server source code may include only that information which is exposed to a client project under development. The stripped-down library generated from the extracted server source code is received by a reflection-based component that uses reflection to generate documentation and disclosure information helpful in the development of the client source code. Because the server project does not have to be compiled or ready to be compiled before the software development information for the client project can be provided, development of the server side source code and the client side source code can proceed in tandem or incrementally.
