-----------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Assignee: Robert Scholte
Giving such a resources dependency the scope {{runtime}} should be sufficient
to fix this issue. It will actually have better effects for other plugins too.
> Exclude non-Java JARs from Maven Javadoc plugin processing
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MJAVADOC-523
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-523
> Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: javadoc
> Affects Versions: 2.8
> Reporter: Thorsten Glaser
> Assignee: Robert Scholte
> Priority: Minor
>
> I have a multi-module project which builds a couple of JARs and then
> distributed them into two WARs.
> However, one of the JARs does not contain any Java code at all, merely
> (maven-filtered) resources. This leads to warnings during the build like
> these:
> {noformat}[…]
> [INFO] — maven-javadoc-plugin:2.8:jar (attach-javadocs) @ foo-services —
> [INFO] The goal 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin:2.8:javadoc'
> has not been previously called for the module:
> 'de.tarent.foo:foo-rsrcs:jar:1.3.900-SNAPSHOT'. Trying to invoke it...
> [WARNING] Creating fake javadoc directory to prevent repeated invocations:
> /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/FooTool/workspace/foo-backend/foo-rsrcs/target/apidocs
> [ERROR] Error fetching link:
> /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/FooTool/workspace/foo-backend/foo-rsrcs/target/apidocs/package-list.
> Ignored it.
> [INFO]
> Loading source files for package de.tarent.foo.rest.transformation...
> […]{noformat}
> I found how I can exclude javadoc stuff by package, but not by artifact.
> The plugin is currently included ONLY in the parent POM, like this:
> {code:xml}
> <plugin>
> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
> <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
> <version>2.8</version>
> <executions>
> <execution>
> <id>attach-javadocs</id>
> <goals>
> <goal>jar</goal>
> </goals>
> </execution>
> </executions>
> </plugin>
> {code}
> While it _is_ run during “compilation” of the resources-only JAR, it
> (obviously) produces no result, thus the warning (as it’s not excluded
> either).
> How can I either make it produce something (i.e. the ability to create a
> valid-looking yet contentless FOO-javadoc.jar that satisfies references by
> reverse dependencies, in a JAR not containing any Java™ code) or, probably
> preferably, exclude the {{foo-rsrcs}} module from being accessed by mjavadoc
> on modules depending on it?
