My current conclusion: Definately want to use a relative path or else this will obviously break builds left and right. Using the ${basedir} looks like it will work nicely. However, right now it seems that the javadoc plugin is not replacing backslashes with slashes. I have put various configurations and the error below demonstrating this. It may be that I am doing something stupid here which would be great, or it may be that the back slashes are not currently being replaced appropiately for platform independence. thanks guys for taking the time to have a peek at this . . . * * * WHAT WORKS * * * * full path double back slashes <build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <overview>c:\\working\\tuscany07252006\\java\\samples\\sdo\\src\\main\\java\\overview.html</overview> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> * full path forward slashes <build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <overview>c:/working/tuscany07252006/java/samples/sdo/src/main/java/overview.html</overview> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> * * * FULL PATH - SINGLE BACK SLASHES * * * <build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <overview>c:\working\tuscany07252006\java\samples\sdo\src\main\java\overview.html</overview> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> --> javadoc: error - Error while reading file c:working uscany07252006javasamplessdosrcmainjavaoverview.html * * * RELATIVE PATH USING BASEDIR VARIABLE * * * <build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <overview>${basedir}/src/main/java/overview.html</overview> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> --> javadoc: error - Error while reading file C:working uscany07252006javasamplessdo/src/main/java/overview.html Robbie John.
