To clarify that parenthetical note: the instructions at 
http://www.eclipse.org/jdt/apt/introToAPT.html incorrectly say that the 
generated src folder will be named __generated_src.  That was true for at 
least a while in the 3.1 version of APT, but in 3.2 (and I think in the 
latest versions of 3.1.x) it is named .apt_generated.
