Hi all,

I am busily finishing up my changes to get the maven plugin to have all the
modules as dependencies.  Of course, nothing is as ever as easy as it
seems..  I was able to tweak the mavenplugin.xdt script to add the
references to the module.

However, this means the project.xml also needs those modules in it,
otherwise it will fail when running.  So I have two questions for those with
more Xdoclet understanding then I!

If I want to be able to parse the various tags, then I need all the modules
in the classpath.  Is there any reason NOT to include all of them in the
classpath?  I guess I am wondering if some modules would conflict with
others?  I am thinking specifically of those modules that require other
modules as defined in the various modules.xml files?  For instance, for the
ejbdoclet task, would it be okay to have every module that depends on ejb in
the classpath?

If so, I am headed down the path of dynamically editing the project.xml to
have as dependencies all the modules in the /modules directory, not just the
xdoclet-xdoclet module.  This has proven to be more of a pain then I hoped,
and part of it is that I need to load up the project.xml, edit it, and save
it..  I am messing around with the various SAX and DOM parsers, but it would
be much simpler if I could just use DOM4J or JDOM.  Any reason not to add
DOM4j to the /lib directory?

However, if having ALL the modules in the classpath is a bad thing, then I
may just manually add the minimal set, being
ejbdoclet,webdoclet,hibernatedoclet, etc which I belive implement the Ant
tasks, and let the rest be added by the user in their project.xml.
