Summary: Absolute paths in ant files

Initial Comment:
Environment:
Eclipse 2.1.2
JBoss-IDE 1.2.2
Windows 2000

The ant files packaging-build.xml and xdoclet-build.xml 
contain some absolute path, especially for the 
xdoclet.classpath path id and in zipfilesets.

Is it possible to use relative path (relative to the project 
directory) instead, where possible?

The fact that the path are absolute are due to :
- you can have multiple dependant projects on different 
drives (on Windows)
- it is easier to see if something is missing in the path
- the packaging-build.xml and xdoclet-build.xml are working 
file and should be regenerated when needed.

The important files are .xdoclet and .packaging file which are 
filesystem independant.

As you mention, one solution could be to have relative paths 
everywhere it is possible and keep absolute path if an element 
is on another drive. Patches are welcome.
