Description

If have a multi-module project, the javadoc aggregate does not find inter-module dependencies:

pom.xml

-->module1
-->module2

module 1 depends on module 2

The javadoc plugin is added to the build lifecycle attached to the install phase. When I run "mvn install" I get a "Failed to resolve artifact." error message looking for module 2.

It appears this issue occurs for any plugin that has
@requiresDependencyResolution
and
@aggregator

So the problem is not with the javadoc plugin itself.

This should have been a "related to" link, and not a dependency.

I still don't get why this plugin has been changed to try work as an aggregator, see related to links

@aggregator was added with MJAVADOC-104

I originally thought this may have been fixed along with MJAVADOC-137 by reverting the change from MJAVADOC-104 that added @aggregator, but now I see that it was reported against v2.2.

@aggregator has been removed. If this is still a problem, please provide a sample project and steps to reproduce it.

I'd like to stage the 2.4 release this weekend, and plan to remove this from the 2.4 bucket if no fix or example is provided.

Originally this issue was related to creating an aggregate javadoc jar, but this seems impossible now because of MJAVADOC-125. The javadoc plugin is skipped because the aggregate project has a packaging of "pom".

If there are no plans to allow aggregate javadoc generation during the standard install lifecycle, then I guess this issue should be closed as "Will not fix". And the site should be updated to say that aggregate javadocs can only be created when generating a site.
