(Ebook) XDoclet in Action by Craig Walls, Norman Richards ISBN 9781932394054, 1932394052

A guide to the XDoclet development tool that eliminates programming busy work by automatically generating code and other deployment artifacts, this book enables developers who place meta-data in a single source code file, to use XDoclet to generate additional source code and other files that are required in a project. Using both smaller code examples and a full-scale J2EE examples, everything needed to employ XDoclet code generation into a development cycle is provided. In addition to the typical uses of XDoclet in J2EE development, also covered are other uses of XDoclet with non-J2EE technologies such as JDO, Hibernate, JMX, SOAP, and MockObjects. Also, if none of these out-of-the box XDoclet tasks meet the developer's needs, information on how to extend XDoclet to generate practically any code your project requires is furnished.
