>
> Key: MJAVADOC-570
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-570
> Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin (Moved to GitHub Issues)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: javadoc
> Affects Versions: 3.1.0
> Reporter: Gili
> Assignee: Robert Scholte
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.1.0
>
>
> It's quicker for me to explain this problem that produce a minimal testcase
> for it. In AbstractJavadocMojo line 5079 we invoke:
> {code:java}
> addArgIfNotEmpty( arguments, "--add-modules", JavadocUtil.quotedPathArgument(
> addModulesLine ) );{code}
> This gets converted to {{addArgIfNotEmpty()}} with {{splitValue=true}} which
> means that comma-separated values get converted to newline-separated values.
> {{--add-modules}} does not like this and does not consume the subsequent
> arguments (they probably get treated as source files instead).
> We should be invoking {{addArgIfNotEmpty()}} with {{splitValue=false}}
> instead.
> If I provide a PR for this, do you still need a testcase?
> On a side-note, it would really help if they documented the expected
> behavior. I only ran across this by chance due to this bug report on OpenJDK:
> [https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8165634] and when I converted
> newline to commas in my own project one of the error messages went away.
