Alexander Kriegisch commented on MJAVADOC-775: ---------------------------------------------- [~elharo], are you sure it is is godd idea to close this one? My {{ClassNotFoundException}} is not the same as the {{InvliadPathException}} in the other issue. The descriptions also sound different. Just because there happen to be two issues about tagle paths, it does not automatically mean that they are identical. I also do not understand what you are missing here. There is a link to a real-world reproducer with exact instructions which commit to check out. A link to previous conversation on a mailing list about this, where you can also find an error description, also exists. > 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 > Priority: Major > > TheĀ [{{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}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
