Basically, for unknown reasons, javadoc version 8 requires a trailing slash at the end of its -link options. So this works: javadoc -link http://foo.bar/baz*/* ... ...but this does not: javadoc -link http://foo.bar/baz ... Line 3932 of AbstractJavadocMojo.java is responsible for programmatically stripping trailing slashes—which of course works fine for earlier versions of javadoc. (Probably while someone's in there they should add formal support for the Java 8 API locations, etc. as well.) Best, Laird -- http://about.me/lairdnelson
