for a build.properties file, how about using property substitution:

xdoclet.version=1.2b2
xdoclet.dir=${lib.dir}/xdoclet-${xdoclet.version}
xdoclet-whatever.jar=${xdoclet.dir}/xdoclet-whatever-${xdoclet.version}.jar

this is a scheme i use (not quite for xdoclet, i actually just include *.jar from ${xdoclet.dir}.... shhhh, don't tell anyone, as i recommend against this mostly).

just wondering why this move was made?

i'm using xdoclet on several projects and rather than copying all the xdoc .jars to each project's lib directory, i'm using a build.properties file to store references to each module.jar located in the cvs-downloaded target/lib directory. now that the version number has been tacked on to each module's .jar (i.e. module-1.2b2), each reference in build.properties needs to be updated.

for those of us using the cvs version, is it possible to just use the version number scheme for non-beta/rc releases, as updating all the build.properties files for each beta release is somewhat a laborious effort, or to just include the version number if making one large xdoclet-all-version.jar (that includes everything)?

for those using build.properties file to include a reference to each of the xdoclet module.jars that your project needs, how are you handling this change?

thank you and congrats on the 1.2b2 release!
