question about maven build goals....

When I run the maven javadoc target from the API2 directory, I get the following error back

$ cd trunk\api2
$ maven javadoc

__  __

| |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \  ~ intelligent projects ~

... add nausium

The javadoc target seems to run, however and generate javadoc items.

But, what causes this error exactly, and how do I avoid it?

Jira bug JDO 603 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-603) suggests that a directory name has to contain the text "jdo".

The build documentation doesn't specify build instructions completely - something I'll be updating, BTW when I get this question answered ...

Thanks in advance.

Hi Richard,

I'm surprised you see this error when running 'maven javadoc'. What I 
recall is that this check for the directory name is done when running a 
distribution (e.g. maven dist).

I could run maven javadoc in api2 w/o any problems. Even after renaming 
the root directory jdo to a different name it still works. You might 
want to run maven in debug mode 'maven -X javadoc' and see whether this 
gives some useful information. Attention: the output is very verbose :-).

Regards Michael

> O.K. That makes more sense.  However, I am executing maven from the directory structure you suggest, and still get that error.  My specific directory is:
