---------------------------------------------
Summary: improve jenkins javadoc warnings from test-patch.sh
Key: HADOOP-10325
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10325
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe
Currently test-patch.sh uses {{OK_JAVADOC_WARNINGS}} to know how many warnings
trunk is expected to have. However, this is a fragile and difficult to use
system, since different build slaves may generate different numbers of warnings
(based on compiler revision, etc.). Also, programmers must remember to update
{{OK_JAVADOC_WARNINGS}}, which they don't always. Finally, there is no easy
way to find what the *new* javadoc warnings are in the huge pile of warnings.
We should change this to work the same way the javac warnings code does: to
simply build with and without the patch and do a diff. The diff should be
saved for easy perusal. We also should not complain about warnings being
removed.
