Incorrect classpath is used when site plugin/phase launches javadoc command
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MSITE-432
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-432
Project: Maven 2.x Site Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0.1, 2.0-beta-7
Environment: Maven 2.2.1
Reporter: Chris Tait
Priority: Minor
Attachments: maven-projects.zip
When invoking the site plugin (with javadoc reporting enabled) for a project
that depends on both the main artifact and the tests artifact of another
project, the classpath passed to the javadoc command is incorrect.
For example:
Project A produces the following artifacts:
- ProjectA-version.jar (main artifact)
- ProjectA-version-tests.jar (test classes)
And project B has dependencies similar to this:
{code}<dependency>
<groupId>...</groupId>
<artifactId>Project1</artifactId>
<version>...</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>...</groupId>
<artifactId>Project1</artifactId>
<version>...</version>
<classifier>tests</classifier>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>{code}
Then only one of the jars is included in the classpath passed to the javadoc
command. (Normally it seems to be the main artifact, although on one of my
projects it was the tests artifact instead.) This causes lots of warnings, or
for some projects causes the build to fail.
Note that if I explicitly run the javadoc goals (i.e. "mvn javadoc:javadoc" or
"mvn javadoc:test-javadoc") then the classpath is populated correctly and no
errors are shown. It's only when the site plugin/phase launches it that the
classpath is wrong. I've also found that the order of the dependencies within
the POM file seems to make a difference in some cases.
I've attached a zip file containing two projects to reproduce this. To run it:
# run {{mvn install}} on project1
# run {{mvn site}} on project2 (to see the warnings) or {{mvn
javadoc:test-javadoc}}
The warning looks like this:
{code}[WARNING] Javadoc Warnings
[WARNING]
D:\code\EclipseWorkspaces_chris\PaymentCard\project3\src\main\java\repro3\MyClass3.java:3:
cannot find symbol
[WARNING] symbol : class MyClass1
[WARNING] location: package repro1
[WARNING] import repro1.MyClass1;
