Olivier Lemasle commented on MJAVADOC-407:
------------------------------------------
I have the same problem and it seems that MJAVADOC-408 duplicates this issue.
Looking to the error {{java.lang.ClassCastException:
com.sun.tools.javadoc.ClassDocImpl cannot be cast to
com.sun.javadoc.AnnotationTypeDoc}}, I've found this useful explanation:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/44853/why-am-i-getting-a-classcastexception-when-generating-javadocs
Therefore, the regression comes from MJAVADOC-398: build classes (including
3rd-parties dependencies) are not on javadoc classpath anymore.

> I now know that the reason is that the Maven Javadoc Plugin has changed from
> 2.9.1 to 2.10. and this is the cause of the problem.
> I can see this warning...
> [WARNING] 'build.plugins.plugin.version' for
> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin is missing. [WARNING]
> 'build.plugins.plugin.version' for
> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-deploy-plugin is missing.
> By setting the following in my pom....
> org.apache.maven.plugins maven-javadoc-plugin 2.9.1 attach-javadocs jar
> I can fix the version back to the last release.
