This tool can be used to create a set of EJB java files compatible with xdoclet generation from an already existing EJB project.
It is useful for migrating EJB projects that have been created with another tool to xdoclet.
Doing so, you'll get all the benefits from xdoclet.

As input it gets :
- the ejb-jar.xml
- the local/remote/home/bean files

As output it produces :
- the unique bean file with correct xdoclet tags.

Installation instructions

Download and unzip the binary release.

It will create 4 jar files [commons-collections.jar reversexd.jar xerces.jar xjavadoc-1.1.jar]

Be sure you have a Java JDK version >= 1.4.2 with "java" in the path.

How to use it

reversexd.jar is an executable jar.

Usage : java -jar reversexd.jar path/ejb-jar.xml path/src path/generated

path/ejb-jar.xml        the relative or absolute path to the ejb-jar
                        you want to convert to xdoclets tags

path/src                is the relative or absolute path to the root of sources
                         where the program will find the implementation, remote, local interfaces etc...

path/generated          is the relative or absolute path to the where the
                         generated bean java files compatible with xdoclet will be generated
