---------------------------------------------------------------

bq. I don't agree with this. It is an array or args which has to be provided as 
such. This is not a string.
If it's an array already, then how do you explain this:

https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-javadoc-plugin/javadoc-mojo.html#additionalOptions
bq. This value should include quotes as necessary for parameters that include 
spaces.
Whose idea was it?


------------------------
bq. I don't understand in general why the argfile syntax is different to the 
command line.
Maybe they wanted to allow something like:
{code}
"really/stra \r\t\n\" nge/path/"
{code}

>             Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: javadoc
>    Affects Versions: 2.10.4
>            Reporter: Ilya Basin
>            Assignee: Michael Osipov
>            Priority: Major
>
> On Windows `generate-rest-docs` goal of `maven-jira-plugin` calls 
> `maven-javadoc-plugin` with:
>     {code}additionalparam: -output 
> "C:\path\to\target\classes\resourcedoc.xml"{code}
> If this argument was passed to `javadoc.exe` directly, I'm pretty sure this 
> would work. However, the javadoc plugin generates an argument file[1] named 
> "options" and executes:
>     {code}javadoc.exe ... @options{code}
> The file contains all arguments with unescaped backslashes, although javadoc 
> command documentation[2] suggests:
> {quote}If a filename contains embedded spaces, put the whole filename in 
> double quotes, and double each backslash ("My Files\\Stuff.java"){quote}
> javadoc plugin version "2.4" is hardcoded in jira plugin, but I see no 
> related changes in "2.10.4" in AbstractJavadocMojo.addCommandLineOptions() .
