There’s a file called “.xdoclet” that’s created in the root directory of the project (both Web and EJB) I created with My Eclipse.

It looks like all the settings that were config’ed with the xdoclet gui widget from Right Click -> Properties on the project are in there.

Question is: is this specific to MyEclipse… or can I rip this out and use it on our dev servers in standalone mode with an Ant Script using XDoclet?

Thanks…

IIRC this is a MyEclipse specific config file it uses. But there is nothing stopping you from trying to run it via Ant, sometimes a man just needs a little adventure in his life 😉

Uh… but if all that happens with the .xdoclet files is that you (MyEclispse) uses it to build the xdoclet-build.xml file, then what use is it to run it through Ant?

I checked the source of XDoclet and it doesn’t seem to properties from a file like this … it’s all in task defs of the build XML file.

That’s all I wanted to know.
