By the way, I found in the FAQs for the javadoc plugin the information on how to deploy the separate Javadoc JAR file, but it turned out that doesn't help. That's mostly Eclipse's fault (for some reason you can't use a path variable to indicate where to find Javadocs, only source? WTF, Eclipse team?) But anyway, I would still really like to package the Javadoc into the same JAR as the classes, if that's possible.
~DVA -----Original Message----- From: Allen, Daniel Sent: Friday, March 14, 2008 4:10 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: [m2] Javadoc packaged with deployed JAR Hi, all. I've created a small package of utilities that I'm deploying to the company's local repository for reuse. However, a problem with that reuse is that when we do our programming in Eclipse, the mouse-over javadoc display doesn't work, so it's hard to tell what functionality I'm actually providing. I know that I can create the javadocs as a Maven report with the javadoc plugin, or generate the documents on their own with "mvn javadoc:jar", but is there a way to include the javadoc results in the same JAR file that's produced and deployed by "mvn deploy"? I think that way, Eclipse would see them and helpfully display arguments, comments, etc. one I add my package to the build path. Failing that, how would I go about deploying the JAR that "mvn javadoc:jar" creates? Thanks, ~Dan Allen -- This message may contain confidential, proprietary, or legally privileged information.
