Robert Scholte commented on MJAVADOC-499:
-----------------------------------------
I'd like to do a 3.0.0 release and this issue has a workaround, so let's push
this one forward.
> Ignore module-info.java on earlier Java versions
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MJAVADOC-499
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-499
> Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0-M1
> Reporter: Stephen Colebourne
> Assignee: Robert Scholte
>
> Versions of the javadoc tool prior to Java 9 cannot process
> `module-info.java`. The plugin should automatically detect and exclude
> `module-info.java` if the javadoc tool is Java 8 or earlier. The alternative
> (Java version specific profiles) does work, but is very verbose for something
> that can never work (thus the plugin should deal with it)
