Many thanks to both Ara and Matthew. Your quick and accurate replies were
most appreciated!
Using the <XDoclet:forAllClasses> worked great. I tried using {0} in the
destination file instead and all I got was a file with "{0}" in its name -
so is this feature a post-1.0.1 feature? I'm sticking with 1.0.1 for the
time being as I have plenty of other variables in my equation and I'm trying
to minimize them as much as possible.
In my particular case, the forAllClasses is the approach I need, but I'm
curious why the {0} doesn't work. I'm also assuming the "XDt" prefix for
tags is post-1.0.1, right?
Thanks again,
Erik
