Can you elaborate? Well, we should rely on the fact there's always a tag definition in an xml files. In other words there should be a *safe mode* and an *unsafe mode*. Safe mode is activated if the template specifies a xml tag definition files, otherwise the unsafe mode is used and xdoclet does not complain if user typed say @jbossssss:relaion which in case of safe mode should because there's no jbossss: tag. The XDocletTagSupport utility methods such as getClassTagValue/etc should also remain intact and we'll add a set of new methods (a getClassTagValue which uses TagBeans and consults xml files).

I hope someone will volunteer to do it :o) Cheers, Ara. _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
