Sure! Weblogic and all other vendor specific stuff should be moved to the optional package imho. Xdoclet is 2.5MB now, it's too much!! Isn't it an Ant by its own really??! :o) And you know even better than that: separate jars for all weblogic/jboss/etc stuff, they are huge by themselves too. But the technical question is: is it possible? Well, not as far as I know, because EjbdocletTask for example has a hard dependency to JBossSubTask/etc. But there should be a hack.... > I'm not thrilled with the mx4j because it appears to require the entire > mx4j project to test compilation of sample results (?? is this correct) > since it generates an extension to an mx4j class. Yup because it's part of samples/script/build.xml and Ant requires XDoclet and Ant fails frequently in its Gump build process because of xdoclet/etc. > I'd appreciate some clarification of what criteria you are thinking of. > > thanks > david jencks Ara. > On 2002.04.04 08:35:14 -0500 Ara Abrahamian wrote: > > +1 to removing mx4j from xdoclet's build, because: > > - it doesn't seem to be generic enough > > - and btw do we need it in the core? > > > > I think we definitely need to follow the path ant follows: > > - a core (xdoclet core + core tasks/subtasks) > > - a set of optional tasks/subtasks > > - a separate xdoclet-contrib module for special purpose items > > > > Ara. > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:xdoclet-devel- > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Peter Donald > > > Sent: Thursday, April 04, 2002 5:11 PM > > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Subject: [Xdoclet-devel] XDoclet / MX4j integration failure > > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > I am having trouble building the latest mx4j with the latest xdoclet. > > I > > > can't > > > quite locate the problem.
