The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Apache
Maven Javadoc Plugin, version 3.0.0-M1
The Javadoc Plugin uses the Javadoc tool to generate javadocs for the
specified project.
https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-javadoc-plugin/
You should specify the version in your project's plugin configuration:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0-M1</version>
</plugin>
You can download the appropriate sources etc. from the download page:
https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-javadoc-plugin/download.cgi
NOTE: this is a milestone release, because there are still some open
issues which need to be fixed before the official 3.0.0, e.g. replace some
deprecated parameters.
This release is mainly there to provide a Java9 compatible plugin
(previous versions fail the build), even though not all Java 9 features
are supported yet.
