Persistent inner classes and xdoclet
------------------------------------

         Key: OJB-43
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OJB-43
     Project: OJB
        Type: Bug
    Versions: 1.0.3    
    Reporter: Laurie Harper


To reference an inner class, xdoclet requires it to be referenced as 
Outer.Inner while OJB requires it to be referenced as Outer$Inner. This makes 
it impossible to get a correct mapping using the xdoclet plugin. Here's a 
truncated example that demonstrates the problem:

/**
 * @ojb.class
 */
public class History {
    /**
     * @ojb.class
     */
    public static class Change {
        // change log info...
    }

    /**
     * @ojb.collection foreignkey="..."
     *         element-class-ref="...History$Change"
     */
    private List changes;
} 

xdoclet will report "Collection changes in class ...History references an 
unknown class ...History$Change." Replacing the '$' with a '.' will allow 
xdoclet to generate the mapping, but OJB will fail to load the repository, 
reporting a ClassNotFoundException for ...History.Change. The 
repository_user.xml needs to be manually editted after generation by xdoclet.
