Gili created MJAVADOC-574: ----------------------------- Summary: Unable to inherit Javadoc comments for overriden JDK methods Key: MJAVADOC-574 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-574 Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin Issue Type: Bug Components: javadoc Affects Versions: 3.1.0 Reporter: Gili Attachments: testcase.zip
If you run {{mvn javadoc:jar}} on the attached testcase you will notice that any overriden methods end up with empty Javadoc (aside from a small "Overrides" section. According to [https://manpages.debian.org/testing/openjdk-11-jdk-headless/javadoc.1.en.html#METHOD%C2%A0COMMENT%C2%A0INHERITANCE] the inherited method must be on the {{-sourcepath}} but I'm not sure whether that's even possible for core JDK classes. I mean, am I supposed to download the JDK source-code and link to it somehow? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
