>             Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: javadoc
>    Affects Versions: 2.10.4
>            Reporter: Ilya Basin
>            Assignee: Robert Scholte
>            Priority: Major
>
> On Windows `generate-rest-docs` goal of `maven-jira-plugin` calls `maven-javadoc-plugin` with:
>     {code}additionalparam: -output "C:\path\to\target\classes\resourcedoc.xml"{code}
> If this argument was passed to `javadoc.exe` directly, I'm pretty sure this would work. However, the javadoc plugin generates an argument file[1] named "options" and executes:
>     {code}javadoc.exe ... @options{code}
> The file contains all arguments with unescaped backslashes, although javadoc command documentation[2] suggests:
> {quote}If a filename contains embedded spaces, put the whole filename in double quotes, and double each backslash ("My Files\\Stuff.java"){quote}
> javadoc plugin version "2.4" is hardcoded in jira plugin, but I see no related changes in "2.10.4" in AbstractJavadocMojo.addCommandLineOptions() .
