[jira] Commented: (MSITE-443) add a reportingManagement section

["Anthony Whitford (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-443?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=274696#comment-274696 ] 

Anthony Whitford commented on MSITE-443:
----------------------------------------

I like Sven's idea.  Ultimately, I am looking for a way to say, "Use javadoc 2.8" _once_ -- this should affect both the <build> and <reporting> sections, otherwise my pom violates the DRY principle.

>             Project: Maven 2.x and 3.x Site Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>         Environment: maven-site-plugin 2.0-beta-3-SNAPSHOT
>            Reporter: Indrajit Raychaudhuri

> Consider the following POM:
> {code:xml}

> <!-- ... ... -->
> <build>
>     <pluginManagement>
>         <plugin>
>             <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
>             <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
>             <configuration>
>             <author>false</author>
>             </configuration>
>         </plugin>
>     </pluginManagement>
> </build>
> <!-- ... ... -->
> <!-- ... ... -->
> <reporting>
>     <plugins>
>         <plugin>
>             <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
>             <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
>         </plugin>
>     </plugins>
> </reporting>
> <!-- ... ... -->
> {code}
> {{mvn site:site}} doesn't honor the javadoc configuration specified in the {{<pluginManagement/>}} section.
> However, {{mvn javadoc:javadoc}} honors them.
> This is true not just for javadoc but other plugins like checkstyle as well.
> I guess, the {{<reporting/>}} section doesn't use the {{<pluginManagement/>}} section at all.
