> Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin

> Affects Versions: 3.7.0
> Reporter: Michael Osipov
> Assignee: Michael Osipov
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.7.1

>
> Javadoc suffers from the following two problems:
> * During HTML generatation {{Locale#getDefault()}} is invoked and all
> generated content maybe localized, e.g. German, Japanese. That is a surprise
> for most since they expect to see English content. One has to force with
> {{<locale>en</locale>}}.
> * In the past JDKs Oracle now started to even localize stdout and stderr
> output to those languages (see
> https://github.com/openjdk/jdk21u-dev/tree/master/src/jdk.javadoc/share/classes/jdk/javadoc/internal/tool/resources),
> even more could come. This causes a regression with MJAVADOC-751 which
> relies on English language output to work.
> Therefore, we will introduce a new parameter {{forceRootLocale}} which will
> add {{-J-Duser.language= -J-Duser.country=}} and will result in
> {{Locale#ROOT}}. Both will force generated HTML output and std output to be
> in English. Those who still need generated content in a specific language can
> pass {{<locale/>}} and it will work independently of the std output.
