Dmitri,
Since the docletpath is a path, you need to use a path separator. Try this
path="${lib.dir}/nuixdoclet.jar:${lib.dir}/ejbdoclet.jar">
We could perhaps introduce a nested path element for the doclet but the
above should work for you for now.
If that doesn't work, please run ant with the -debug flag and let us know
what is the generated javadoc command line.
