jira-importer opened a new issue, #1194: URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-javadoc-plugin/issues/1194
**[Marco Brandizi](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=mbrandizi)** opened **[MJAVADOC-818](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-818?redirect=false)** and commented I've just switched to the Javadoc plug-in 3.10.1 and I see that I can still set my outputDirectory, but the 'apidocs/' tail is always added to whatever path I define with this option. Same for reportOutputDirectory. Eg, if I say outputDirectory = target/javadoc, it creates target/javadoc/apidocs/*, not target/javadoc/* Before, I was using 3.6.2 and I could do this: {{In the POM}} `<destDir>javadoc</destDir>` And then: `mvn javadoc:javadoc -DreportOutputDirectory=doc` With the result that the javadocs/* were created into \<project home>/javadoc/*. Now I can see that the string "apidocs" is hardcoded in the plug-in source, so I guess there is no way to change it, it's only possible to relocate it. I would like to be able to change it, mostly because a Java library is not the same as an API. --- **Affects:** 3.10.1 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
