Chris Wilton commented on MJAVADOC-311: --------------------------------------- I can confirm this behaviour. If I add the javadoc plugin configuration to the {{<reporting>}} section of the _parent_ pom, then the aggregated javadocs are created when {{mvn site}} is run at the parent level. But they are linked to the _parent_ project and we don't want them there, we want them in the _library_ module's project reports. If the javadoc configuration is instead added to the {{<reporting>}} section of the _library_ pom, then the aggregated javadocs are not created at all if {{mvn site}} is run at the _parent_ level. They are created only if I run {{mvn site}} at the _library_ level. Currently, as a workaround in my project, I am running {{mvn site}} at both the _parent_ and the _library_ level, one after the other. But that does not play nicely with Hudson/Jenkins scheduled site builds - I get wrong URL links and breadcrumbs in the library module. So I have to create and deploy the site manually. > Aggregated javadoc report not generated for multi-module project at sub-level > if run from parent level. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MJAVADOC-311 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAVADOC-311 > Project: Maven 2.x Javadoc Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.7 > Environment: Windows Vista x64, JDK 6u22, Maven 3.0 > Reporter: André Fügenschuh > Attachments: maven3-site-javadoc-testcase.zip > > > With a +multi-module project design+ (cf. attached testcase): > {noformat} > - parent (pom) > + library (pom) // javadoc:aggregate > + module-a (jar) > + module-b (jar) > + application (jar) // javadoc:javadoc > {noformat} > run > {{mvn site}} | {{mvn -DstagingDirectory=\[dir\] site:stage}} > at _parent_ level. > +Result:+ > Aggregated javadocs for _library_ are *not* generated (but are properly done > if {{mvn site}} is run at _library_ level itself), while javadocs at > _application_ level are generated. > OT: as appropriate {{<modules>}} sections are declared (cf. attached > testcase), {{mvn compile}} runs as expected at _parent_ level. > This is a follow-up to MJAVADOC-181, which, although marked as resolved, has > never been working for me using the _old_ site/reports configuration for > Maven 2.2.1 / Site plugin 2.1.1. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
