Uwe Schindler commented on SOLR-14870:
--------------------------------------

Actually the links refguide -> javadocs should setup a link to the "global" 
javadocs. The local "javadocs" (as packaged into Maven Javadocs-JAR files) are 
not in the deal. Maybe we have some communication problem here (terms and 
semantic).

About [~dweiss]'s comments:

bq. this should not be the case. If docs are to be rendered with local links 
they should be rendered separately (different task, different outputs). This 
ensures caches (up-to-date) are working correctly. That global "local.javadocs" 
should be removed, in other words.

I agree! The problem here is manifold:

- The global javadocs (which should be a separate subproject for packaging) 
should have this externally configureable link (so Jenkins or release manager 
can adapt the links) -> see below, here the links are fine
- The local Javadocs (which are packaged into Maven javadocs-JARS and that are 
local to project folders) whoulc not have any outside links, because they are 
always viewed in isolation (e.g., inside IDE). I'd just disable all 
inter-project links for them. Then there's also no need to check links. There 
should not even be a link between Lucene subprojects.

bq. Our "global" javadocs are rendered conditionally too (see 
documentation.gradle)

That's fine, as its a constant for the whole build. When it changes, the inputs 
of renderJavadocs changes and all files are regenerated. You can easily test 
this by passing another javadoc URL with {{-P}} and the documentation is 
regenerated. I tested this several times when I implemented this.
