Ryan Ernst commented on LUCENE-6257: ------------------------------------ [~arafalov] Please reread the issue description. This issue is about removing javadocs from the binary release. They would still be available online, and can still be generated for offline uses using the source download. > Remove javadocs from releases (except for publishing) > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-6257 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6257 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Ryan Ernst > > In LUCENE-6247, one idea discussed to decrease the size of release artifacts > was to remove javadocs from the binary release. Anyone needing javadocs > offline can download the source distribution and generate the javadocs. > I also think we should investigate removing javadocs jars from maven. I did > a quick test, and getting the source in intellij seemed sufficient to show > javadocs. However, this test was far from scientific, so if someone knows > for sure whether a separate javadocs jar is truly necessary, please say so. > Regardless of the outcome of the two ideas above, we would continue building, > validating and making the javadocs available online. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
