The compiled jar consists of both class and source files so the IDE should be 
able to pick up the
source without issues. At least in Netbeans and Eclipse I haven't had any 
issues. What issues are
you having without a separate source jar?


Is there any way we can also upload the source and javadoc

Out of interest, why is the javadoc.jar necessary? In Eclipse and Netbeans the 
JavaDoc is rendered
directly from the source code.

Btw I don't have an issue with uploading JavaDoc or source to maven, just don't 
understand why its
necessary. Feel free to raise a JIRA if there is a valid case here.

Kind regards
