I have a webapp W which has a build dependency on Java Project Y.
The compilation occurs correctly but the runtime fails to find Project Y. I know I need to put something in the xdoclet-build.xml to include Project Y as a .jar file into the WEB-INF lib directory but I don’t exactly what my xdoclet-build.xml needs to look like.Any help would be appreciated. Perhaps a sample xdoclet-build.xml which uses multiple Java Projects in the build dependencies.
Also, you’d think that if you created a build dependency, AND created a project dependecy, that the xdoclet-build.xml could be automatically generated to include Project Y into the war file.
Perhaps the next release?

JC, I’m not sure how to do this with XDoclet, but I know that our deployment infrastructure has been updated in 2.7 GA (release this week) will now follow Links so you can setup linked JARs in a project, and in 2.8 GA we are going to include the ability of the deployment tool to deploy dependendant projects as well (full details not finalized yet on this).
I will fire your XDoclet question to Scott, as he tends to know everything.
I really don’t think this is XDoclet functionality. Right now, the easiest thing to do is export the project as a jar into the WEB-INF/lib directory of your web project. When you do the export, select the option to remember the jardesc so that when the project changes it will be a ‘one click’ maneuver to re-export it. Version 2.8 should be able to do this automatically for you.
