xdoclet plugin and multiple java source directories

["J. Matthew Pryor" <jm...@yahoo.com>]

I am pretty sure this one is for the xdoclet
developers but I am wondering
if anyone here has come across this.

I am writing an AndroMDA maven plugin. Its working
well, but I am having
trouble when it comes time to run xdoclet on the
AndroMDA generated code

AndroMDA generates 2 kinds of files. One that can
safely be regenerated (a
base class if you like), and one that is supposed to
serve as a template
that is generated once and then hand edited thereafter

Usually this is done into 2 different directory
structures

The base classes I want to generate into
${maven.build.dir}/genarc/java and
the other files into ${maven.src.dir}/java/main

Now the problem comes from 2 places

a) pom.build.sourceDirectory only has a single root
b) all the xdoclet plugin jelly code assumes that the
directory for supplied
filesets is ${pom.build.sourceDirectory}

            <j:set var="fileset_index" value="0"/>
            <j:forEach begin="0" end="10"
indexVar="fileset_index">
                <j:set var="fileset_index_var_name"
value="maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.fileset.${fileset_index}"/>
                <j:if
test="${context.getVariable(fileset_index_var_name) !=
null}">
                    <fileset
dir="${pom.build.sourceDirectory}">
                        <j:set
var="fileset_index_include_var_name"
value="maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.fileset.${fileset_index}.include"/>
                        <j:set
var="fileset_index_exclude_var_name"
value="maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.fileset.${fileset_index}.exclude"/>
                        <j:if
test="${context.getVariable(fileset_index_include_var_name)
!= null}">
                            <include
name="${context.getVariable(fileset_index_include_var_name)}"/>
                        </j:if>
                        <j:if
test="${context.getVariable(fileset_index_exclude_var_name)
!= null}">
                            <exclude
name="${context.getVariable(fileset_index_exclude_var_name)}"/>
                        </j:if>
                    </fileset>
                </j:if>
            </j:forEach>

So I could create my own xdoclet maven plugn and allow
the dir to be
specified
i.e.
maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.fileset.0=true
maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.fileset.0.dir=${maven.build.dir}/genarc/java
maven.xdoclet.webdoclet.fileset.0.include=**/*Servlet.java

That would be nice, and I'll try & get the xdoclet
folks to make that change
to the xdoclet plugin.jelly file

But how generally do people deal with generated Java
code, especially when
there are 2 levels of generation

1. AndroMDA
2. XDoclet

Right now I get my AndroMDA plugin to add the output
folders to the
'maven.compile.src.set'
<maven:addPath id="maven.compile.src.set"
refid="andromda.java.compile.src.set.${subelement_index}"/>

Anyway I'd appreciate any advice people care to pass
on

Thanks,
Matthew
