## XDoclet 1.2 Beta 1 Change Log

### Core

- XDoclet now requires Jakarta Ant v1.5 or higher.
- Refactoring work to make more modular. The bad news is there's a lot more jars for you to include in the classpath. The good news is you don't need all of them, depending on what tasks and subtasks you're using. There's an open enhancement request to build all modules into a single jar.
- We no longer use JavaDoc, but instead our own XJavaDoc module.
- The documentation has been reworked. A lot of it is now generated from the code, so should keep up to date better.
- We now use the Jakarta Commons Logging rather than Log4J directly.

### EJB Module

- Added <valueobject> subtask. This is a much more flexible version of dataobjects, allowing finer grained control and relation following. The dataobject subtask is now deprecated in favour of this.
