-----------------------------------------
Thank your for the explanation. The original description did not really do that
and was unclear to me. I will try the patch later that day and give you
feedback.
> javadoc:aggregate fails on initial build
> ----------------------------------------
>
> Key: MJAVADOC-437
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-437
> Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.10.3
> Reporter: Harald Wellmann
> Assignee: Michael Osipov
>
> h3. Scenario
> Take a SNAPSHOT version of a reactor project with at least two JAR modules.
> Assume that no artifacts of the given SNAPSHOT version have been built before
> (this is usually the case just after running release:perform).
> h3. Actual Behaviour
> Now run {{mvn javadoc:aggregate}}. This build fails in the forked lifecycle.
> maven-javadoc-plugin unnecessarily tries to resolve the JAR artifacts of the
> current reactor (which are not avialable yet) and add them to the Javadoc
> classpath.
> h3. Expected Behaviour
> Aggregated Javadoc should be generated without problems. It is sufficient to
> take the sources of the current reactor and only put *external* dependencies
> on the Javadoc classpath.
> This is a duplicate of an 8 year old bug MJAVADOC-116 with 51 votes which has
> been closed without being fixed.
> A patch for this problem was submitted in MJAVADOC-362, but does not seem to
> have received attention by committers. (I admit the problem description is
> not very clear.)
