    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-550?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16725023#comment-16725023 ] 

Jesko Jochum commented on MJAVADOC-550:
---------------------------------------

I found out that instead of using {{$\{date:YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS\}}} one can use the following settings
{noformat}
...
<properties>
	<!-- Timestamp for the Javadoc @version tag. -->
	<maven.build.timestamp.format>yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss</maven.build.timestamp.format>
</properties>
...
<!-- Default content for Javadoc @version tags. -->
<defaultVersion>${project.version}, ${maven.build.timestamp}</defaultVersion>
...
{noformat}

> It would be good to have more settings. 
> The {{default*}} setting, seem to be used if there is no tag yet. The {{defaultVersion}} should be changed to something like:
> {noformat}
> defaultVersion=${project.version}, ${date:YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS}
> {noformat}
> , with the {{$\{date:YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS\}}} to show the build date and time time
> Several {{update*}} settings could be used to replace the old tags with a new ones, especially an {{updateVersion}} setting would be sensible.
> {noformat}
> updateAuthor=${user.name}
> updateVersion=${project.version}, ${date:YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS}
> updateSince=${project.version} // Probably not necessary
> {noformat}
> An {{addAuthor}} settings could be used to append an author to the existing ones, if the existing string does not yet contain the one to add. 
> {noformat}
> addAuthor=${user.name}
> {noformat}
