Javadoc (Apache Ant API)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.tools.ant.ProjectComponent
- - org.apache.tools.ant.Task
  - - org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Javadoc

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable
```
public class Javadoc
extends Task
```
Generates Javadoc documentation for a collection of source code.
Current known limitations are:
- patterns must be of the form "xxx.*", every other pattern doesn't work.
- there is no control on arguments sanity since they are left to the Javadoc implementation.
If no doclet is set, then the version and author are by default "yes".

Note: This task is run on another VM because the Javadoc code calls System.exit() which would break Ant functionality.
Since:

Ant 1.1
