Javadoc: nested element "tag" does not allow empty description attribute





------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-04-11 11:18 -------
I think the code causing this behaviour is located in 
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Javadoc.java
in method getParameter():

            if (description == null || description.equals("")){
                throw new BuildException
                    ("No description specified for custom tag " + name);
            }
I think the exception should not be thrown if the tag name is a standard tag 
name.
