The XDoclet tool is not generating the hbm.xml files.
Here is what I did:

I downloaded xdoclet-1.2.2-SNAPSHOT
In my src foler, I put the:
xdoclet-1.2.2-SNAPSHOT\docs\ant\xdoclet folder

so now there's an src\xdoclet folder

In my lib directory I created a folde called xdoclet and in it I put the *.jar files from the xdoclet-1.2.2-SNAPSHOT\lib folder.

In my classpath I included the tools.jar file from my C:\j2sdk1.4.2_04\lib
in my CLASSPATH.


I also dl ANT and created a System environment variable called ANT_HOME with the C:\apache-ant-1.6.2-bin

In my PATH environemtn variable I included
%ANT_HOME%\bin

It does not seem like the HibernateDoclet is generating hbm.xml files.

Here is my build.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="test" default="compile" basedir=".">
<property name="source.root" value="src"/>
<property name="class.root" value="classes"/>

</project>


When I type: 'ant generate' into the command line
I get:

C:\hibernate-2.1\practice9>ant generate
Buildfile: build.xml

prepare:
[mkdir] Created dir: C:\hibernate-2.1\practice9\classes
[mkdir] Created dir: C:\hibernate-2.1\practice9\generated
[copy] Copying 3 files to C:\hibernate-2.1\practice9\classes

compile:
[javac] Compiling 2 source files to C:\hibernate-2.1\practice9\classes

generate:
[hibernatedoclet] log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (xdoclet.uti
l.Translator.getString).
[hibernatedoclet] log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 14 seconds


So it BUILDS SUCCESSFUL but there is no hbm.xml files generated.
Why would that be?



Thank you,
