    Description

      Why?

      1. A lot of static analysis tools understand the javax.annotation.Generated annotation and treat those classes differently.
      2. Setting the date field with the date & comments field with the version of the thrift compiler might prove to be valuable for tracing the origins of the generated file.

      The overheads should be minimal as the retention policy of the annotation is purely at a source level
