jira-importer opened a new issue, #1153: URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-javadoc-plugin/issues/1153
**[Alexander Kriegisch](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=kriegaex)** opened **[MJAVADOC-775](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-775?redirect=false)** and commented The [`tagletpath` property](https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-javadoc-plugin/apidocs/org/apache/maven/plugins/javadoc/options/Taglet.html#getTagletpath()) used in a [`taglets`/`taglet` element](https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-javadoc-plugin/javadoc-mojo.html#taglets) seems to be completely ignored, despite being documented. It looks as if this never worked before. It is also utterly untested. There is an old bug MJAVADOC-231, but whatever that was meant to fix, it seems to be unrelated to this one. If I have a local JAR unavailable on Maven Central sitting in a libraries folder, I cannot use it in any other way than to contrive to put a copy into my local Maven repository and use `tagletArtifact` instead of `taglets`/`taglet`/`tagletpath`. I noticed this, when trying to help someone asking a question on the [Maven users mailing list](https://lists.apache.org/thread/zv25z3hx9gbmbt6wwhby6cy0t5lr542l). In his [sample repository](https://github.com/jkesselm/xalan-java-mvn), an effort to convert the Xalan Ant Build to Maven, the commit to check out is is [6daf2890](https://github.com/jkesselm/xalan-java-mvn/tree/6daf2890bc03b13cd741b963d33897d61dcf4e5f). Just run `mvn -DskipTests=true site`. --- **Affects:** 3.6.0, 3.6.3 **Issue Links:** - [MJAVADOC-783](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-783) Invalid path when using TagletArtifact and TagletPath (_**"duplicates"**_) **Remote Links:** - [GitHub Pull Request #255 ](https://github.com/apache/maven-javadoc-plugin/pull/255) 0 votes, 5 watchers -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
