Matt Doar commented on LUCENE-1083:
-----------------------------------

Grant,

I was imagining more that the release process for Lucene could be changed so 
that whoever is creating a release also runs JDiff to produce the HTML reports, 
which they then post on the website with the usual Javadocs, and possibly 
include the report in the released package, say in a directory named 
docs/changes next to where docs/api currently is.

The Maven javadoc task looks like it should be able to create the reports. I 
guess I should see if I can come up with a working example of that.

> I think that a helpful addition to the release process for Lucene would be 
> [JDiff|http://www.jdiff.org] reports of the API changes between different 
> versions. I am attaching reports of the differences between 1.9.1 and 2.2.0 
> and also between 2.1.0 and 2.2.0. The reports could be changed to only show 
> the public methods. The start page is changes.html.
> This is the Ant target I added to the top-level build.xml file in the JDiff 
> directory to produce a report:
> {noformat}
> <target name="lucene" depends="dist">
>   <taskdef name="jdiff" 
>            classname="jdiff.JDiffAntTask" 
>            classpath="${dist.dir}/antjdiff.jar" />
>   <jdiff destdir="${reports.dir}/lucene" 
>          verbose="on"
>          stats="on"
>          docchanges="on">
>     <old name="1.9.1">
>       <dirset dir="${examples.dir}/lucene-1.9.1/src/java" includes="org/**" />
>     </old>
>     <new name="2.2.0">
>       <dirset dir="${examples.dir}/lucene-2.2.0/src/java" includes="org/**" />
>     </new>
>   </jdiff>
> </target>
> {noformat}
