[Xdoclet-user] use of xdoclet to generate part of a method of an existing class

[boutin]

Hi, I've got series of classes (EJBs) which their home & remote interface are generated by XDoclet1.2.1. And, I'd like to modifiy the ejbCreate of the EJB method if a specific argument is passed to the ant instruction. So I've decided to use : <template destinationFile="{0}.java" templateFile="transform-ejb-cmp.xdt" mergeDir="${merge.dir}"/> My question :     is it possible to have the transform-ejb-cmp.xdt file like that     -->     <XDtEjbComment:comment>     As there is a lot of different file in the project, I only need to modify the one which are of a CMP entity type     </XDtEjbComment:comment>     <XDtEjbCmp:ifEntity>        [here I need to recopy all the stuff from the original file to the last line of ejbCreate()]                    // several specific java instruction                    System.out.println("test");        [here I need to recopy all the stuff from the original file to the last line of ejbCreate() to the last line of file]     </XDtEjbCmp:ifEntity>     Another solution was to take original entity-cmp.xdt files and modify then but it doesn't fit my needs cause the process for this subtask is treating only files ending with CMP moreover I only need to modify the ejbCreate method and the original entity-cmp.xdt file modify a lot of other things like methods signature, extension of class and so on.     Have you got any clues wich could help me in resolving this issue ?     Thanks a lot for all you can do.     Regards,     Denis Boutin.     The following EJB class is originally like that :     package ....     ....     public abstract class Toto implements EntityBean {           ....           ....                  /**            *            *            */           public abstract ejbCreate() {                 setId(1);                 setToto("3");           }           ....     }     The result file I'd like to have is :       package ....     ....     public abstract class Toto implements EntityBean {           ....           ....                  /**            *            *            */           public abstract ejbCreate() {                 setId(1);                 setToto("3");                 // several specific java instruction                 System.out.println("test");                        }           ....     }
