Re: [Xdoclet-user] XDoclet project is dead?

X2 is a lot more interesting and versatile than X1. It seems to me that this might have caused it to be announced a wee bit before it was robust. That might have turned some people off from it.

It's quite stable and robust now, but the complexity initially appears to be a tradeoff between the complexity of the X1 templates and the X2 PluginPlugin. The fact is that you can just code with straight Velocity templates and lose the complexity of both. I do that a lot in the Dentaku project, which has created different metadata providers that can read from UML and generate with the existing output plugins. The design of X2 is outstanding and once you understand it you'll find it's difficult to imagine going back. As for the missing plugins, I would say if we had a bit more momentum from people getting on board with it, there wouldn't be an issue with getting them finished.

What is the difference between xdoclet and xdoclet2?
 If I were to start a new
project say, using J2EE technologies, should I use
xdoclet?  or xdoclet2?  Which
one is more mature?

XD1 i surely more mature ( it is longer around :) )
XD2 is in production state, and xdoclet-2 itself is
realy
stable  and had no changes lately ( they are not
necessary )

Current development is concentrated on plugins
http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/xdoclet-plugins/
( and the plugins do real work )

XD2 plugin is easier to develop that doclet/subtask
for XD1
( formal tag declaration, choice in templating engines
 - you got
jelly / veocity / freemarker )

Though we have no axis plugin at the moment, and EJB
plugins
are not ready.

To be honest, though, XDoclet 1.x is mostly in

maintenance mode these

days.  There's a few other developers who have

updated things

occasionally, but it's been fairly static

otherwise.  No doubt

Konstantin will be along in a minute to say

there's more activity going

on in XDoclet 2 and its plugins - see

http://xdoclet.codehaus.org/

Well, AFAIR you are also have commit
rights on XD2 plugins as every XD1 developer who was
active around
autumn 2003.
