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

Thanks for the sample project. Confirmed it is a bug. 

> Misleading Setting "excludePackageNames"

> The setting {{excludePackageNames}} is not working, as I would expect, or 
> should be renamed to something like {{excludePathNames}} with an updated 
> description, to reveal what it is really doing.
> I have the default layout for the sources, i.e. they get stored in the 
> {{${project.basedir}\src\main\java}} subfolder of my project.
>  For testing purposes I sometimes create classes in the subpackage 
> {{my.companyname.temp}}, which I do not want to have included in the 
> generated javadoc, why I use the following {{excludePackageNames}} setting:
> {noformat}
> ...
> <!-- Exclude files in temporary packages -->
> <excludePackageNames>*.temp.*</excludePackageNames>
> ...
> {noformat}
> in my {{pom.xml}}.
> By doing this, I wanted to exclude all .java sources in the folders 
> {{${project.basedir}\src\main\java*\temp*}} from the javadoc generation, but 
> what I got was an exclusion of all .java sources, if there is a subfolder 
> with the name {{temp}} in any segment of the path, even in the 
> {{$\{project.basedir}}}.
> So, after moving the project into e.g. the folder {{D:\temp\}} no javadoc 
> gets generated at all.
