Yes it works out of the box for me. And it is convincing.
Now I see which javadoc comments will be important in the future.
You will need to tell people how to add external files to the generated
documentation, to add examples, tips, bugs, ...


Why not  * @antdoc.example  snippet="<foo />"
*                               description="Generates a default bar"
         Lets keep as much as possible in the the source file.


Because its a real pain to HTML encode all the <> symbols and its much easier to have an external file with samples clearly formatted and styled in HTML I believe.

Won't xodlet handle the xml excaping for us. If not we should patch xdoclet.

We still need to keep Javadoc clean so that API documentation does not suffer. And putting unescaped angle brackets in Javadoc is not quite legal (it works, but it interprets it as HTML in the default output).


I'm not sure if XDoclet escapes or not... if so its an optional switch that I've not used.

Don't worry, if XDoclet won't do something we need it to do, and we can change it without problems on that end, consider it done. I have the power!

p.s. Many thanks to Aslak who earlier today patched XDoclet to allow "public void method() {};" syntax to pass through its parser - even though that syntax is against the Java spec BNF, yet all compilers allow it, so XDoclet might as well too.
