I always put XDoclet-generated files in target/xdoclet/hibernatedoclet,
target/xdoclet/springdoclet, that kind of thing.
Isn't it true that XDoclet won't bother re-creating your generated classes
if the timestamps on the source and destination files match? I mean is
there a force=false kind of setting or something?
You can also set
maven -DdoXDoclet=true
on the command line and just
<j:if test="${doXDoclet == 'true'}">
....xdoclet things
....copy xdoclet-generated source over to src/java...
</j:if>
