SebbASF commented on MSITE-578: ------------------------------- The fixed descriptions are much clearer, thanks. However, generatedSiteDirectory and outputDirectory are still marked as "required", even though they have defaults. > Incorrect and confusing documentation of site directories > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MSITE-578 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-578 > Project: Maven 2.x and 3.x Site Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: site:stage(-deploy) > Affects Versions: 2.2, 3.0-beta-3 > Reporter: SebbASF > Assignee: Lukas Theussl > Fix For: 2.3, 3.0-beta-4 > > > The site:stage goal contains the following doc: > generatedSiteDirectory: > Directory containing generated documentation. > * Type: java.io.File > * Required: Yes > * Expression: ${project.build.directory}/generated-site > The expression looks wrong. > The explanation is also a bit ambiguous - is the directory used to find > already generated documentation, or is it used as the output directory from > site:stage? In which case, how does it differ from outputDirectory ? > The page also contains: > outputDirectory: > Directory containing the generated project sites and report distributions. > * Type: java.io.File > * Required: Yes > * Expression: ${siteOutputDirectory} > * Default: ${project.reporting.outputDirectory} > Again, it's not obvious if this is an output or input directory. > Also, why is the parameter marked as "Required" when there is a default? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
