Matthew,

As everyone else is in this space, I am new at this, and what I say should
be taken with a high degree of skeptism.

Two weeks ago, I looked for the same type of tutorial.  I found no
definitive work, however, I did find clues from various sources.  The two
best sources are xpetstore and the xdoclet documentation.  Be careful of
dated examples on the web.

The biggest piece of advice that I would give is to make sure that the
versions of JBOSS and xdoclet that you are using matchup.  I am using JBOSS
v3.2.1 and xdoclet v1.2 beta 2.  This seems to be work well.  Also, make
sure that you are reading the xdoclet documentation that matches the version
you are using.  Sounds obvious, but I got burnt by it.

I have now worked my way through enough that I am able to generate
deployment descriptors that do a reasonable job of the following:

- Implement a reasonable Session facade design pattern (ejb definitions and
references).
- Implement one-to-many CMR patterns
- Generate proper persistent fields
- Distinguish between local and remote interfaces
- etc.

I have not attempted to use webdoclet yet.  I gotta get this prototype done
first...

If you have specific questions, I might be able to answer them.

Paul
