[jira] Commented: (MECLIPSE-292) Behaviour for sources and Javadoc
attachement for dependencies should be consistent
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-292?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_101584 ]
Brian Fox commented on MECLIPSE-292:
------------------------------------
tested by hand and works. The classpath file has absolute references to the javadoc jar, it should use M2_REPO like the rest.

> Why couldn't we have a consistent behaviour for javadoc and sources jar attachment?
> Why not adding a downloadJavadoc property, which, when set to true, would download and attach the javadoc to the dependency.
> I don't really see why javadoc should be a fallback if sources are not available.
> Some developpers might prefer to have javadoc linked, some sources linked and some both. Shouldn't the eclipse plugin allow for all the possiblities instead of stating that the preferred option is always to get the sources instead of the Javadoc?
