Hello,

I am new to using XDoclet. Using the latest JBoss IDE with Eclipse 3.1, I want it to generate my EJB home and remote interfaces based on the annotations in the EJB implementation class (J2EE 1.3, EJB 2.0).
I have followed the steps in the JBoss IDE Users Guide and have defined my XDoclet tasks.
It currently generates all deployment descriptors and home interfaces alright, but it does not generate the remote interface.
For my test bean I define:

/**
* @ejb.bean name="SLSB_ABean"
* display-name="SLSB_ABean"
* description="SLSB_ABean"
* jndi-name="ejb/SLSB_ABean"
* type="Stateless"
* view-type="remote"
* generate = "true"
* transaction-type = "Container"
*/
public class SLSB_ABean implements SessionBean
{
[...]
}

I also annotate all business methods:

/**
* @ejb.interface-method view-type = "remote"
*/
public String echoMessage(String msg) {
//details omitted
}


I further added a remoteinterface task in my XDoclet configuration and did also set the destDir property to my src folder.

However, when running XDoclet I get the following output in the console:

[ejbdoclet] (XDocletMain.start 47 ) Running

_xdoclet_generation_:

As you can see, it enters the remoteinterface task but does not generate anything.
Does anyone have an idea what I could be missing here in my example?

Many thanks in advance for any help.
