Description Eric Lewis CLA 2006-10-12 08:36:17 EDT 
When configuring the XDoclet Home directory (Window... Preferences... XDoclet), Eclipse looks for the XDoclet JAR files only in that directory and ignores subdirectories. The 'all JARs in one directory' may be the case for a normal XDoclet installation, but we're using Maven, which nests the JARs several directories deep in its repository.

If for instance, I specifiy [my Maven 2 repository]/xdoclet/xdoclet/1.2.3 as XDoclet Home, then xdoclet-1.2.3.jar is found, but Eclipse complains that it can't find xjavadoc-1.1.jar

Mass reassignment of bugs from Naci to ejb-inbox.
Comment 2 Kaloyan Raev CLA 2012-11-02 03:38:58 EDT 
I am closing all tickets related to XDoclet as WON'T FIX, because there is no committer to support this functionality. I can review patches if anyone is willing to contribute.
