Alexander Kriegisch created MJAVADOC-775:
--------------------------------------------
Summary: Option 'tagletpath' not working, completely ignored
Key: MJAVADOC-775
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-775
Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: javadoc
Affects Versions: 3.6.0
Reporter: Alexander Kriegisch
The [{{tagletpath}}
option|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-javadoc-plugin/aggregate-mojo.html#tagletpath]
seems to be completely ignored, despite being documented. It looks as if this
never worked before. It is also utterly untested. There is an old bug
MJAVADOC-231, but whatever that was meant to fix, it seems to be unrelated to
this one. If I have a local JAR unavailable on Maven Central sitting in a
libraries folder, I cannot use it in any other way than to contrive to put a
copy into my local Maven repository and use {{tagletArtifact}} instead of
{{tagletpath}}.
I noticed this, when trying to help someone asking a question on the [Maven
users mailing
list|https://lists.apache.org/thread/zv25z3hx9gbmbt6wwhby6cy0t5lr542l]. In his
[sample repository|https://github.com/jkesselm/xalan-java-mvn], an effort to
convert the Xalan Ant Build to Maven, the commit to check out is is
[6daf2890|https://github.com/jkesselm/xalan-java-mvn/tree/6daf2890bc03b13cd741b963d33897d61dcf4e5f].
Just run {{mvn -DskipTests=true site}}.
