http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32927 Summary: javadoc task: description required for tag element Product: Ant Version: 1.6.2 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] IMHO it seems a bit silly that the description parameter of the tag element of the javadoc tag is required. Especially when you use the tag element to _suppress_ processing of a custom tag (e.g. xdoclet tags when generating javadoc docs), it is strange that you _have_ to specify a description (and moreover: it fails without any message when you don't). The javadoc tool itself does not require a 'taghead' (as it is called there): it simply defaults to the tagname. I would suggest a fix like (in the TagArgument inner class in Javadoc): public String getParameter () throws BuildException { if (name == null || name.equals("")) { throw new BuildException ("No name specified for custom tag."); } if (description != null) { return name + ":" + (enabled ? "" : "X") + scope + ":" + description; } else { return name + ":" + (enabled ? "" : "X") + scope + ":" + name; } } } -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
