In 4.0GA we have updated our XDoclet support to match XDoclet version 1.2.3 release. This update includes a refresh of the XDoclet configuration UI.

For those of use not downloading GA [yet], can you please describe the benefits of the new xdoclet/properties UI? Thanks.
What I am lookin for is to have a "save as" feature and/or a default setting feature. I do not want to go thru setting all the xdoclet settings for each ejb project.

nat,
The XDoclet functionality has not changed between 3.8.4 and 4.0, we simply updated the XDoclet libraries to fix quite a few bugs in the old versions, add Hibernate 3 support and also support generating code from Java 5 source files (however using generics in your XDoclet properties doesn't currently work with this version of XDoclet).

Also, because we updated the xdoclet libraries, there are new configuration options that should be made available in the XDoclet configuration UI. So we have also updated the XDoclet UI to make all of these new configuration elements available.

Ok. Thanks for the info.

Just following up with the original problem reported in this thread. We have recently tested 4.0GA on a window 2000 test machine and we did not see any problem with the properties list in the XDoclet configuration screen.

Are there any details about your environment that hasn't been metioned that might help us determine the issue?

my eclipse is 3.1 release version, os is win2k pro, j2ee1.4, ejb2.x, jre5.0.

We retested this with a fully up2date win2k pro with the latest JDK from Sun 1.5.0_04. Still, we can't replicate the problem. But does the workaround as posted on the first page of this topic work for you? It seems to for other people that are having this problem. Sorry for the inconveinence.

I also faced same problem today. This solution really helped me. I am running W2K... Thanks alot tjmapley

Kevin,
Notice that it's complaining about the "4.0.4.GA" attribute you are using for some version attribute in your doclet? You need to check the XDoclet docs at: http://xdoclet.sf.net to see what valid values are, these versions aren't just free-form, they actually effect how generation is performed.
