Description

When running the jxr plugin on the logback project, I have observed a different behavior for the jxr plugin under Maven 3 compared to Maven 2. With maven 2, jxr writes to the target/site/xref directory of the parent module, with Maven 3, xref writes to the target/site/xref directory of each sub-module.

Is there a recommended way to have jxr:jxr write to the target/site/xref directory of the parent module?

The logback project can be downloaded from [1] or [2].

Thanks for the response Dennis. However, I was aware of the aggregate option for the jxr plugin.

For some reason when I run the following commands under Maven 2.2.1
> mvn clean
> mvn install site
the javadocs and xref files are created properly, but under Maven 3.0-alpha-6 no javadoc nor xref files are created, not at top-level nor in any of the sub-modules. It's probably a problem related to the alpha status of Maven3.

As mentioned earlier, the logback project is open-source and can be downloaded from the links provided above.

After setting the version of the plugin to 3.0-beta-1-SNAPSHOT, I ran into a different bunch of problems. I am dropping the issue for now, will try later.

I saw that document. The "not yet implemented sign" scared me off. Anyway, I kept getting various errors about unfound snapshot artifacts, nothing really interesting or to write about...
