--------------------------------------

             Summary: JVM "JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS" or "_JAVA_OPTIONS" message 
detected as javadoc warning, triggers failure 
                 Key: MJAVADOC-538
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-538
             Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.0.1
         Environment: Maven 3.5.4
Java 1.8.0_181
            Reporter: Yoann Rodière


When an environment variable {{_JAVA_OPTIONS}} or {{JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS}} is 
defined, every JVM that starts will output a message to inform users of these 
options being picked up:
{noformat}
$ export JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-Dfoo
$ java -version                 
Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Dfoo
java version "1.8.0_181"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_181-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.181-b13, mixed mode){noformat}
Apparently this message cannot be suppressed, that's on purpose an won't 
change: [https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8039152]

 

Unfortunately, this message seems to be interpreted by the maven-javadoc-plugin 
as a warning:
{noformat}
[INFO] --- maven-javadoc-plugin:3.0.1:javadoc-no-fork (generate-javadoc) @ 
hibernate-search-util-internal-common ---
[INFO] The goal 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin:3.0.1:javadoc' 
has not been previously called for the module: 
'org.hibernate.search:hibernate-search-util-internal-test:jar:6.0.0-SNAPSHOT'. 
Trying to invoke it...
[WARN] Maven will be executed in interactive mode, but no input stream has been 
configured for this MavenInvoker instance.
Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Dfoo

[ERROR] Error fetching link:

 Ignored it.
[WARNING] Javadoc Warnings
[WARNING] Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Dfoo
{noformat}
(see the last line, the message appears in the list of warnings)

No big deal... until you enable the 
[failOnWarnings|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-javadoc-plugin/javadoc-no-fork-mojo.html#failOnWarnings]
 option. Then the whole build will fail just because some JVM detected an 
environment variable...

I couldn't find any workaround, except disabling the {{failOnWarnings}} 
options, but that's more a surrender than a workaround.

Note that the definition of {{_JAVA_OPTIONS}} or {{JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS}} is not 
exactly an exotic use case, especially on Continuous Integration platforms. 
[Travis CI uses {{_JAVA_OPTIONS}} 
|https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/build-environment-updates/2017-09-06/#added] 
to set JVM memory limits in its containerized environments, and [the Jenkins CI 
Pipeline Maven plugin uses 
{{JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS}}|https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Pipeline+Maven+Plugin#PipelineMavenPlugin-WhydoIseemessages%22[WARNING]PickedupJAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS...%22inthebuildlogs?]
 to pass options to Maven processes transparently.
