[Xdoclet-devel] jdo dependent element attribute

[Jeff Brown]

Last night I found myself trying to generate jdo metadata that contains 
a collection whose values need to be marked with dependent-element, per 
latest JDO 2.0 spec.  I found that xdoclet was not generating the 
attribute for me if I put the appropriate tag in my source file.  A 
little digging brought me to find that an xdt file had not been updated 
with this attribute yet.  I added a couple of lines the xdt file and it 
appears to be working for me as I would expect it to.

I have attached a patch file showing the change.  I hope this is 
accurate and I hope this helps.

Thanks.
