Jesse McConnell commented on MJAVADOC-66:
-
issue here is that the aggregate option will force javadoc generation to only
occur at the top lvl execution root of the project, and it does this by putting
adding all of the source roots of the reactor projects into the list of source
paths to process. However the dependencies of the subjects are not added into
the mix so those symbols will indeed not be found.
one potential approach to this would be walk through the dependencies of the
subprojects and add those into the classpath of the report, but that probably
will break on windows since there is a max length of the commandline and this
plugin builds out a plexus commandline object which would have huge potential
if this were a larger project using the aggregate.
another might be to get this plugin to not be using the commandline? have to
look into it I suppose
Aggregated Javadoc does not use module-level dependencies

Key: MJAVADOC-66
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAVADOC-66
Project: Maven 2.x Javadoc Plugin
Type: Bug
Versions: 2.0
Environment: WinXP, Maven 2.0.4, maven-javadoc-plugin from source
Reporter: Wendy Smoak
Fix For: 2.0
The 'mvn javadoc:javadoc' command works fine with the latest plugin built
from source and this in struts/action/trunk/pom.xml:
reporting
plugins
plugin
groupIdorg.apache.maven.plugins/groupId
artifactIdmaven-javadoc-plugin/artifactId
/plugin
/plugins
/reporting
It drops into each module and builds the javadoc there. However, if I add
configuration and try to get aggregated Javadoc at the top level:
configuration
aggregatetrue/aggregate
/configuration
It seems to build the aggregated Javadoc okay, but then when starts
descending into each module it fails complaining Cannot find
symbol... about things like commons-logging and the Servlet api. These are
declared as dependencies at the module level.
