Robert Scholte closed MJAVADOC-436.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Assignee: Robert Scholte
All external classes you use should be part of a direct dependency, never rely
on transitive dependencies. Suppose one of your dependencies decides to drop
that certain library, then your code won't work anymore.
Use {{dependency:analyze}} to discover if you have have used but undeclared
dependencies, in other words if your code is using classes from transitive
dependencies.
> New flag for detecting links in transitive dependencies

> Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.10.3
> Reporter: Maciej Prochniak

>
> Currently,
> detectLinks checks only direct project dependencies. It would be nice to have
> a way to search for links also in transitive dependencies.
> I suggest adding detectLinksInTransitiveDependencies flag, which would enable
> this behaviour.
> Proposed patch included.
