Regression: javadoc plugin fails when a <maxmemory> parameter is provided
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1237
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1237
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Bug
  Components: maven-javadoc-plugin  
    Versions: 2.0 (RC)    
 Environment: Windows XP
 Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux


maven-javadoc-plugin fails when a <maxmemory> parameter is provided. This is a 
regression, since it was working in Maven 2 beta 3. This is caused by a change 
in the way parameters are handled in Maven 2 RC: the maven-javadoc-plugin now 
put them in an "options" file, and the command line now contains only:

   <path to j2se tools>/javadoc @options @files

But the <maxmemory> maps to the -J-Xmx option, and all -J options are required 
to appear in the command line. They are not allowed to appear in the options 
file. See:

   
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/tooldocs/windows/javadoc.html#argumentfiles

maven-javadoc-plugin should put all -J options on the command line instead of 
the options file. This constraint applies at least to the following parameters:

    <maxmemory>
    <minmemory>

(I have not checked if it applied to other parameters).
