Add a flag to provide standard doclet parameters to custom ones too
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MJAVADOC-78
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAVADOC-78
Project: Maven 2.x Javadoc Plugin
Type: Improvement
Versions: 2.0
Reporter: Andrea Aime
I'm working on a custom doclet that wraps the standard doclet and add extra
behaviour (automated class diagram generation in class javadocs and package
javadocs). I want to run it under maven 2, but I've stumbled against the
default behaviour: standard doclet parameters such as -link are provided only
if the javadoc is the standard one (in AbstractJavadocMojo.java, the check is
"if ( StringUtils.isEmpty( doclet ) ) ...").
A generally good behaviour would be not perform assumptions, but to call
XXXDoclet.optionLength for each parameter, and see if the doclet accepts them
or not (and thus provide only the one accepted). As an alternative, add at
least a flag to allow the provision of the standard doclet parameters to the
custom ones as well.
