[jira] Created: (MJAVADOC-268) performance problem in AbstractJavadocMojo.getModulesLinks()

performance problem in AbstractJavadocMojo.getModulesLinks()
------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MJAVADOC-268
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAVADOC-268
             Project: Maven 2.x Javadoc Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.6
         Environment: Apache Maven 2.2.0 (r788681; 2009-06-26 15:04:01+0200)
Java version: 1.6.0_13
Java home: /home/mkleint/javatools/jdk1.6.0_13/jre
Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "linux" version: "2.6.29.6-desktop-2mnb" arch: "i386" Family: "unix"
            Reporter: Milos Kleint
            Priority: Critical
         Attachments: javadoc.patch

The getModulesLinks() method is unacceptably slow under certain conditions:
1. project's url is defined
2. one or more projects in reactor do not have any java sources and are not of "pom" packaging.
For such projects the apidocs/ output folder is never created resulting in repeated invokation of a forked javadoc goal. It's more severe with high number of modules in reactor and high number of modules without any java sources.

as an example checkout "hg clone https://hg.kenai.com/hg/forceten~src"

The immediate problem is in the apidocsFile.exists() condition that re-triggers the forked invokation. The attached patch fixes that. However it looks suspicitions that the method is being called repeatedly for each module at all. Maybe the aborting condition at the start of the method body is wrong (I was not able to decypher that)

workaround is to use 2.5 or not to specify the url in pom.xml or set the detectOfflineLinks parameter to "false".

David MARTIN commented on MJAVADOC-268:
---------------------------------------

Are you sure it's really fixed ?

Version 2.6 lets appear some messages like 'goal [...] has not be previously called for the project ...', but version 2.6.1 doesn't work at all with multi-module release (through maven release plugin).

-------------------------------------------

I'm the author of forceten - please use "hg up -C 65db9b4e5077" to get a version with the 2.6, as I'm temporarily reverting the project to use 2.5.

I agree, I think this issue should be reopened. It's indeed an important thing.

Hoping to find a solution, thank you very much!

I can confirm this is NOT fixed for 2.7. Is it possible to reopen this Issue, or do we need to resubmit a new one?

--------------------------------------

The issue still exists in 2.7 and does not seem to be fixed.  When running in a reactor, this problem causes maven to infinitely recurse.  2.5 seems to work ok though.

Ah - just noticed that it has been linked to [MJAVADOC-286|http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAVADOC-286] which is still Open and Unresolved. So we could all go over there and vote for that issue.

[jira] Commented: (MJAVADOC-268) performance problem in AbstractJavadocMojo.getModulesLinks()

Posted by "Erik Brakkee (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>.
    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAVADOC-268?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=228721#action_228721 ]

---------------------------------------

I can also confirm it still exists in version 2.7. Reverting back to 2.5 solves the problem, however with only drawback which is that there is no multi-module javadoc available for the overall site. At least my site generation time reduces now from 45 minutes to about 7.
