Well, XD2 plugin is way easier to tweak as XD1 - as now there is sane templating language ( jelly in case of TLD, and everything XML ) and formal tag definition. Usually you would put metadata on wrapper classes, but it is also possible to walk down the hierarchy and gather metadata from there. > Maybe Konstantin could bring some light into whether > standard xd2 taglib doclet would deliver this > flexibility.

Well, there is no "doclet" anymore - there are plugins. For using real annotations one would need to write different metadata provider ( which would reside / or be related to generama ) and use it instead. Though I can not predict how much work it would be ;) regards, ----[ Konstantin Pribluda http://www.pribluda.de ]---------------- Still using XDoclet 1.x?
