what to do with JXR?
Currently in the Maven 1 plugin, we have JXR, which I believe came from
Alexandria a ways back. We are the only ones actively maintaining it,
AFAIK. It is also used in the m2 equivalent and is a copy of the same
sources, which is not a great idea.
I'd like to gather opinions on the following:
[ ] create a Maven subproject (like SCM) to maintain it
[ ] see if commons will take it and put it in the sandbox there
[ ] toss it in favour of something else, please specify _________________
[ ] other, please specify ______________
Thanks,
Brett

After a quick search I've found these other solutions
http://beautyj.berlios.de/
http://www.javastart.com/doc/freemarker-1.7/docs/freemarker/template/utility/JavaToHtml.html
But probably the better way would be using the converters from a code
coverage tool as cobertura. Probably we can arrange with that guys to
refactor its approach in something usefulf for both of us (if
neeeded).

There is also the javasrc package which I believe is now under Gump. It
has an Antlr grammar and I believe it makes a more complete xref so
someone might want to look at that. It came into the Alexandria project
a good time after JXR.

+1 to make it a Maven subproject, I think it fits in under the Maven
umbrella better than under the Jakarta Commons and I doubt that it would
get as much attention under commons as it would under Maven.
+0 to move it to commons.
Something needs to be done anyway, thanks for your everlasting efforts
Brett.

Same thing : commons if possible otherwise maven

I think it's the best solution, but if we can't I'm + 1 for a Maven subproject

Ben Walding once suggested to use the Clover Xref files instead of jxr (
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPJXR-30 ), but that doesn't give the
same functionality.

Is this the only tool that handles this task? Are there tools out there
with a community that we could adopt instead? I'm not wild about adding
to the list of APIs that we're maintaining, especially when it's just a
reporting api that definitely has applicability outside of maven. And
putting it in commons would be effectively the same thing...I've seen
the kind of crowds that are drawn by most commons-* projects.
If there are no alternatives out there with a thriving community (i.e.
use outside of maven, or any single tool), I'd be in favor of bundling
it with the plugin, so it's most easily maintained. If the jxr mojo is
the only thing using it, there's not much point in creating a separate
api, is there?
BTW, just looked up javasrc, and it looks like it's not being maintained
anymore...
I've looked around a bit, and can't come up with much as far as a
replacement.
So:
