Hi there,
the attached patch passes proxy settings to the javadoc commandline tool, which will
be called from the <javadoc> ant task.
Proxy settings are necessary if external javadoc resources should be linked
with the generated javadoc, and the host resides behind a firewall.
The proxy settings from the system properties must be explicitly passed to the
javadoc commandline tool, since the tool cannot be run inside the same jvm as
ant, and therefore a new jvm will be created for javadoc (refer to:
http://ant.apache.org/manual/index.html)
1. yes, it would be good. I work behind a proxy and feel your pain
This issue is also discussed in bug# 29870, but only workarounds are proposed.
Hi hope this patch will be merged into the Ant source tree.
Looking at, it could be a start for a more generic bit of code to
propagate proxy settings to either Java or Executable
instances...something that passes down the non-null settings with a
custom prefix for the specific app, here -J-D,
