Description

if i have a merge point file that doesn't have a root (like servlets.xml), then xdoclet fails because it is not a well formatted xml.

however, if i add a dummy root element to it (as i have seen in the test application in the distribution), the root element is added to the resulting web.xml making it not valid.

also, an annoyance is that when failing on a ill-formatted xml, the file name isn't given, even when run in debug mode (-X in maven). instead, it gives the line in WebPlugin.jelly, which means i have to unpack the jar and open this file, go to the line, in order to see which file of mine is to blame.

Hi,

The same problem occurs with the StrutsPlugin.
the <j:jelly> tag, or any other dummy tag seems to work well (as the tag is simply ignored).

The single exception is with the struts-actions.xml merge file:
-if you wrap content within tag, the tag then appears in the resulting strutsconfig.xml
-if you don't wrap, you get an empty (0 bite) strutsconfig.

i would gladly help fixin' it, but I don't know what to seek.

Merge for jelly based plugins was reworked.
(dedicated jelly tag )
Contents of merge files shall be wrapped in:

<j:jelly xmlns:j="jelly:core">

( and full jelly templating is also available there )
