I just got on the xdoclet mailing list list today.  I'm a qa engineer on the JRun team 
at Macromedia.   I'll explain what I know about the JRun 4 xdoclet integration and 
offer my help to the xdoclet project.

We don't have any Xdoclet tags specific for JRun yet.  We hope to contribute @tags to 
generate two JRun 4.0 specific files.  They are jrun-ejb-jar.xml and jrun-web.xml.   I 
have the dtd's and they can also be extracted from a jar file in the beta.  I believe 
all other configuration adheres to the J2EE 1.3 standard files.

I'll try to describe the integration.  JRun 4.0 is jmx based so we wrote an Mbean 
interface and implementation class for an xdoclet jmx service.  The one class and one 
interface is the only customization work that has been done.  Doesn't really make 
sense to put this code into xdoclet because it is probably no use outside JRun.  In 
the jmx service service you configure a working directory.  The service looks for 
files in the working directory containing xdoclet tags.   When the file is modified 
ant is automatically called within JRun to call the xdoclet target.  This is cool when 
used in conjunction with an auto deploy feature.  When you save the xdoclet formatted 
source, the projects is automatically rebuilt and redeployed.  

It's unfortunate there hasn't been more communication from our team to let you know 
what we've been up to.  We all have been really busy getting the beta out and 
preparing for the next beta.  I'm just getting up to speed with xdoclet but I hope to 
help out and write/contribute jrun tags.

That's good, and that's good that they do it themselves. Anyway it all
depends on their strategy whether they want to contribute it to
xdoclet's core or not. We'll happily host their @tags if they want :o)
 
Cheers,
Ara.
