Class Javadoc

java.lang.Object
All Implemented Interfaces:
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
