Hi all!
  I am trying to understand a "Best Behavior" question. It is best
illustrated by example. Here goes...
1) Let's say I am going to create a little test application (multi-module)
that uses Spring. 
2) I Create a directory ... MyTestSpringApplication.. and change to the
command line.
3) While in the MyTestSpringApplication directory I run mvn
archetype:generate. I do NOT even choose a number (default). My groupId is
my.test. The packageName is the same, and the artifactId is springtest.
4) After a successful build I delete the src directory and change the
packaging to pom in the created pom file. And cd to the springtest
directory..
5) In this directory I will run the mvn archetype:generate command twice.
Once creating a default (jar) project named nonwebexamples. And then one for
webapplications named webexamples. 
6) I import these modules into my IDE (in this case INTELLIJ) and add to the
parent pom the following:
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring</artifactId>
        <version>2.5.6</version>
    </dependency>
7)At this point both child modules are dependent on spring and JUnit
3.8.1(for testing). 
8) Now for my QUESTION. Neither Spring NOR JUnit have imported the Javadoc
jar for their artifacts (for download) so the IDEs could be configured
easily. Obviously I could configure my IDE easily, but in a large project
this would grow exponentially. Is there any way, to use maven to create the
javadocs on the fly for my local repository, or some better way to handle
this situation that I do not know of?

Thanks in advance and sorry if this is a silly oft-answered question..
Mike Clovis
