> Hello guys
> As per official Javadoc spec, sourcepath can accept both directory and a file.
> [https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/javadoc.html#documentingboth]
> {noformat}
> javadoc -d C:\home\html -sourcepath C:\home\src java.awt C:\home\src\java\applet\Applet.java
> {noformat}
> However sourcepath in the maven javadoc plugin accepts only directory. From AbstractJavadocMojo:
> {code:java}
> sourcePaths = JavadocUtil.pruneDirs( project, sourcePaths );
> {code}
> I'd need to be able to specify a combination of a package in sourcepath and a specific java as in the example above.
> Thank you,
> Michal
