Firstly, you should be aware that EJBDoclet has been renamed as "XDoclet"
(also a sourceforge project), and is effectively no longer supported. You
may wish to try XDoclet instead.
Having said that, I've got a project that still uses the original version.
I run EJBDoclet like this:
<target name="ejb:doclet"
depends="ejb:doclet:check,lib:ejbdoclet"
unless="ejbdoclet.notrequired">
<mkdir dir="build/ejb/java" />
<ejbdoclet sourcepath="ejb/java"
mergedir="ejb/java"
destdir="build/ejb/java"
ejbspec="1.1">
<fileset refid="ejb:beanFiles" />
<classpath>
<path refid="ejbdoclet.classpath" />
<path refid="ejb:compile.classpath" />
<pathelement location="build/ejb/classes" />
</classpath>
<remoteinterface pattern="{0}"/>
<homeinterface/>
<entitypk pattern="{0}Key"/>
<dataobject/>
<entitybmp/>
<entitycmp/>
<deploymentdescriptor/>
<weblogic5/>
<jboss typemapping="Oracle8" datasource="java:/corshopDataSource"/>
</ejbdoclet>
</target>
Note though that ejbdoclet generates generic deployment-descriptor names
like "ejb-jar.xml", and these are not suitable for input into <ejbjar>. So
I end up renaming these later on ...
<target name="weblogic6:ejb"
depends="ejb:compile">
<!-- Copy deployment-descriptors -->
<mkdir dir="build/weblogic6/dd" />
<copy file="build/ejb/java/ejb-jar.xml"
tofile="build/weblogic6/dd/CorShop-ejb-jar.xml" />
<copy file="build/ejb/java/weblogic-ejb-jar.xml"
tofile="build/weblogic6/dd/CorShop-weblogic-ejb-jar.xml" />
<copy todir="build/weblogic6/dd">
<fileset dir="build/ejb/java" includes="*CMP.xml" />
</copy>
<!-- create CorShop.jar -->
<ejbjar descriptordir="build/weblogic6/dd" srcdir="build/ejb/classes">
<support dir="build/ejb/classes" />
<weblogic destdir="build/weblogic6/app"
rebuild="false"
newCMP="true">
<classpath refid="ejb:classpath" />
<wlclasspath refid="weblogic6:classpath" />
</weblogic>
<dtd publicId="-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Enterprise JavaBeans 1.1//EN"
location="${basedir}/ejb/deploy/ejb-jar-1.1.dtd"/>
<dtd publicId="-//BEA Systems, Inc.//DTD WebLogic 5.1.0 EJB//EN"
location="${basedir}/ejb/deploy/weblogic510-ejb-jar.dtd"/>
<include name="CorShop-ejb-jar.xml" />
</ejbjar>
</target>
Hope this helps.
