It's completely different, but much easier - so
purchase of the book will not help you :)

As you may have seen, plugins are kept in separate
project on sourceforge
( http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/xdoclet-plugins
) 

There is also already ejb plugin  - but quite
orphaned. 
It may serve as good starting point.

Basically there are 2 types of plugins - based on
jelly ( good for xml production )  and on velocity (
java source ) 

Another new feature is self-validating and formally
defined tags (impls generated with xdoclet of course) 

Build environment also encourages unit testing. 

There is mailing list in SF project which is dedicated
to plugin development.  We are here a bit off-topic, 
since it is XD core list. So I suppose we move further
discussion there ( I'm also subscribed ;) )
