---------------------------------------
Summary: Exclusion rules works differently for java8 and java11
Key: MJAVADOC-797
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-797
Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.7.0
Reporter: Maksim Timonin
The behavior of the filtering differs for java8 and java11 in case of using an
option "-subpackages".
Reproducer is available in the PR:
[1] [https://github.com/apache/maven-javadoc-plugin/pull/289]
There are possibly, 2 bugs:
1. Behavior for exclusion is actually depends on whether the "subpackages"
setting is specified or not - there are different patterns for exclusion used,
see patterns in *JavadocUtil#getExcludedPackages* and
*JavadocUtil#getIncludedFiles*
2. In case of using "subpackages" the scenario in the PR [1], the plugin
prepares equal options for the javadoc util for both java versions. But
actually the output for the javadoc util differs (depends on the java version).
I'm not sure is it an expected behavior for the javadoc util, but I'd expect
the maven-javadoc-plugin will adjust for different java versions and provides
equal exclusion result.
