Publish source/javadoc jar files to the Maven repository
--------------------------------------------------------
Key: HTTPCLIENT-768
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-768
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Documentation, HttpClient
Affects Versions: 4.0 Alpha 3
Reporter: Chris Hubick
Priority: Minor
It would be really nice if HttpComponents (Core and Client) published jar files
to the Maven repository for not just the bytecode, but also for the source and
javadoc (done by defining a "classifier" attribute of "javadoc" or "source" for
the jar when publishing with Maven).
Having these in the Maven repo allows an IDE (like Eclipse) to auto-download
and attach the source/javadoc to the HttpComponent jar files - meaning
developers will then see the API documentation automatically in their IDE.
This also greatly aids debugging if one needs to step through HttpComponent
code, and placing the source in the hands of more developers also means you
might see more patches coming back.
