Nice work, Konstantin. I'm sure individual developers will take a
closer look at "their part" of the doco as soon as they can read it in
html.
(This is actually possible today, but it's part of xdocletgui, so I'm
sure many of us who don't deal with xdocletgui daily feel it's a bit
too far away from where it should be).
I think we should have one xtags.xml file for each xdoclet module
describing the tags. (Move the big xdoclet-tags.xml from xdocletgui,
split it up and put pieces into xdoclet/modules/blabla/doc/xtags.xml).
We can't handle this blob ;-)
Then we should let the script that builds the modules also build their
documentation using the xslt which is inside xdocletgui today. Also
move this to xdoclet.
I think all the xtags.xml should be packaged with the xdoclet-
modules.jar. Then xdocletgui should read the xml from the xdoclet-
modules.jar file.
Here is a suggested structure for the meta info in xdoclet-modules.jar
META-INF/
xdoclet.xml (will be generated by xdoclet prior to packaging)
weblogic/
xtags.xml (maintained by developers)
jboss/
xtags.xml
jboss/
xtags.xml
This means that xdoclet gui needs to access the xtag info from optional-
module.jar, and it will not be packaged inside xdocletgui.jar. The
logic for reading the xtag info should probably be part of the xdoclet
core (and not xdocletgui as it is today), because other components
might need to access that info too.
What do you think about this? Let's discuss this (as wellas the new
xdoclet module structure) on YM tonight. 18.00 - 20.00 GMT. I am
aslak_hellesoy, and I'll send out an invitation to all developers that
invite me as a friend or send me their yahoo id.
Cheers,
Aslak
