Hi all !
I am trying to develop a small J2EE application with WTP. I know there
is currently no direct support for Entity beans (wizards, etc.) but I
thought I could nevertheless use standard XDoclet tags to develop Entity
beans.
Here is what I did :
First I had to use the wizard to create a CustomerManager session bean
in order to enable XDoclet to be run.
Then I wrote a CustomerBean class with all the usual XDoclet tags for
Entity beans.
Some files were generated and moved to the client project (I am
developing an application including EJB modules and -later- Web modules).
The problem is that the CustomerCMP class is moved to the client project
(the CustomerManagerSession class is not moved), resulting in
compilation errors.
I would very much like to know how people around here proceed to develop
entity beans with WTP ? Is there a workaround for the problem I describe ?
Thanks in advance.
Thierry

After some research, I found that there is an auto-generated Ant file
that handles XDoclet building. In this file, some subtask moves all
generated files to the client module except for some patterns:
<target name="client.jar" if="ejb.client.module.src">
<move todir="${ejb.client.module.src}">
<fileset dir="${ejb.project.dir}/${ejb.module.src}" id="id">
<include name="**/*.java"/>
<exclude name="**/*Bean.java"/>
<exclude name="**/*EJB.java"/>
<exclude name="**/*Session.java"/>
<exclude name="**/*Mdb.java"/>
</fileset>
</move>
</target>
I manually modified the template used to generate this file to add the
following:
<exclude name="**/*CMP.java"/>
So now CMP-ending files are no longer moved, removing all sorts of
errors, which is already better.
I have however another question, regarding the subtasks generated
(basically, most of those available): is it possible to somehow choose
what subtasks to include in the build ? I have seen that both
<dataobject/> and <valueobject/> are called, although the former has
been deprecated in favor of the latter.
Thanks again
Thierry
