Since one template can include (merge) other templates, there is some complex code to check all the merged templates to make sure that none of them are newer than the generated file. This check causes several problems: 1. The code has defects which arise in particular circumstances. XDT-502 and XDT-349 are two defects that I'm aware of in particular. 2. I believe that this check is a significant performance hit. Therefore, my suggestion is that there be an option (perhaps in DocletTask) to disable checking if the template(s) are newer than the generated file. This check is really only useful anyways if one is developing templates, or upgrades xDoclet. Otherwise, for everyday use by regular (non-xdoclet) developers, it is not necessary to do this check. --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
