I remeber you take some of my patches too, thanks. > But <rmic> is a lot easier to find a common interface for, I'm > afraid. How many of javadocs attributes or nested elements would be > supported by gjdoc? 50%, 80% or all? In gjdoc case, less than 50%. You are right, I should write <gjdoc> task independent. But main problem remains. This is not ant problem but I would like to explain why I propose supporting gjdoc. If I hear good idea to resolve this problem, I'm happy. I maint java oss packages for Debian. Debian have 'main' and 'contrib' section. 'main' group is official debian package which mean it's compiled and run opensource platform(e.g. kaffe/gcj) 'contrib' group is non-official which mean it's opensource but can't be built nor run with opensource platform. So, most of opensource java software create javadoc document with javadoc task. This means I can't put such a package into main section beacuse javadoc depend on SUN's implentation which is not oss. I would like to increase official package for Debian. Most of javadoc task in build file seems not to use special option. If it use, I can igonore to obtain javadoc in most case. Then ,if gjdoc task is separated, I must modify build.xml file for all javadoc generation to create Debian package. I won't like to modify build.xml for each package and I propose JavadocAdapter. > javadoc1 and javadoc4 are flags.

Ok. Currently, I suspend supporting gjdoc. But when gjdoc grown up or I found other javadoc compatible tool, I'll try again. BTW, I already send the patch in bugzilla. http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23441u Please close it. thanks, Takashi Okamoto --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
