Hi,

I am trying to run xDoclet and it fails saying it cannot find the ‘src’ directory. My Application consists of EAR, EJB and WEB projects which I created using the wizards and customized to fit better my source directory structure to overcome the problem of dependent projects/packages.

The file directory tree is as follows:

- workspace
   - src
         - services (session EJBs)
         - domain (entity EJBs)
         - common (simple java classes contains sub-packages)
         - web (root dir for the struts actions, etc..)
         - util (java utility classes)
         - delegate (business logic delegate classes)
   - Logic (The EJB Project)
          - META-INF
               MANIFEST.MF

   - Web (The WEB Project)
   - APP (The EAR Project)

Both the WEB and My Logic (EJB Project) have instead of physical src sub-dir a linked-resource ‘src’ directory pointing to the real top-level source directory.

All that to ask a small simple question: Does xDoclet can handle this linked-resource directory?? I hope It’s only me doing a stupid mistake of configuration 🙂

I am using myEclipse 3.6.2

LOG I got:

[ejbdoclet] C:\dev\tutim\Logic\src not found.

Thanks a lot,

Erez,

All that to ask a small simple question: Does xDoclet can handle this linked-resource directory?? I hope It’s only me doing a stupid mistake of configuration

We’ll have to investigate it internally for a specific answer, but I don’t think the XDoclet system supports links like this. I’ve added it as an issue in our internal tracking system so we can address it in a subsequent service release. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

By the way, a way to get around it is to direct xDoclet to relative pathes like ‘destDir = ..\src’ and ‘fileset=”..\src”. I am currently checking it but it looks working at least it started generating the files.
I guess persistency pays after all.. (but the price.. 🙂

It does. Now how about recouping your investigation investment by writing a tutorial and submitting it as an entry into our Contest? See the News & Updates page for more details.

I thought about it but I saw that it goes only for 2.6.2, is this true?

Erez,

As long as it also works in 2.6.2, that’s sufficient. 3.6.2 has the same feature set so it should, unless you use and Eclipse 3.0-specfic functionality.
