– Message Body ——————————-
Greetings,

I have a project that uses J2EE EJBs & a Servlet to produce a JAR and WAR file, packaged into an EAR file, which I then deploy onto a JBOSS 4.0RC1 application server. My question is: how can I get the addedTags attribute of the ejbdoclet task (which says, in part: “@xdoclet-generated at ${TODAY}”) to replace ${TODAY} with the date when the files are generated. I have found that by including the <tstamp/> ant task in the project’s xdoclet-build.xml file, I can get the generation date into the generated files. But as soon as I make further changes to the xdoclet build configuration the xdcolet-build.xml file is overwritten. Is there some way to accomplish this goal using an xdoclet-build.properties file? Or, perhaps, a way to include something in the project’s .xdoclet file that would result in the desired outcome? I have experimented enough to find out that modifications to the .xdoclet file are reflected in the xdoclet-build.xml file.

I have sent this to our XDoclet guy.

Sorry for the delay in response.

My suggestion would be to run the xdoclet-build.xml as an external tool so you can specifiy additional properties file.

Right-click on the xdoclet-build.xml file and go to Run->External Tools…. From there you can click on the properties tab and add additional properties files to your xdoclet build.
