Take a look at the updated (in CVS) docs. I added a bit about using the generated source directory to import your xdcolet directory as a source directory. That way, when eclipse does a clean compile, it doesn't wipe out your source... I htink you are using xdoclet to generate a lot of the ejb stuff right? This works perfect for that...
As far as how you are reading in the common code, shouldn't that be a seperate jar (and therefore project) that you are referring to? Maven doesn't really like to read in source from one place into multiple jars...
