            Bug ID: 58429
           Summary: compilerarg for javadoc task
           Product: Ant
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows Server 2003
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2

Created attachment 33117

Screenshot of Ant task producing error message.

I would like to request compilerarg support (or some other appropriately named
element) for the javadoc task.

Java 7 b100 (JDK-6958836 : javadoc should support -Xmaxerrs and -Xmaxwarns, see
http://bugs.java.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=6958836) and Java 8 introduced support
for the -Xmaxerrs and -Xmaxwarns options, but these are not accessible via the
javadoc task.

The screenshot in the attachment is Ant 1.9.4 from Eclipse Mars with Java
1.8.0_60, but I also examined org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Javadoc.java from
trunk/ and found no evidence of support for this feature.

The error:
  javadoc doesn't support the nested "compilerarg" element.

is obviously talking about "javadoc, the Ant task", because "javadoc, the Java
utility" reports:

C:\>javadoc -X
  -Xmaxerrs <number>               Set the maximum number of errors to print
  -Xmaxwarns <number>              Set the maximum number of warnings to print

Provided by standard doclet:
  -Xdocrootparent <url>            Replaces all appearances of @docRoot
followed

                                   by /.. in doc comments with <url>
  -Xdoclint                        Enable recommended checks for problems in
jav
adoc comments
  -Xdoclint:(all|none|[-]<group>)
        Enable or disable specific checks for problems in javadoc comments,
        where <group> is one of accessibility, html, missing, reference, or
synt
ax.

These options are non-standard and subject to change without notice.
