[jira] [Commented] (MCOMPILER-334) Missing configuration documentation

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-334?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16425821#comment-16425821 ] 

Robert Scholte commented on MCOMPILER-334:
------------------------------------------

I guess you are looking for the [goal configuration|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/plugin-info.html], or more specific the [compile|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/compile-mojo.html] configuration.

>                 Key: MCOMPILER-334
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-334
>             Project: Maven Compiler Plugin
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 3.5.1
>            Reporter: Paul Millar
>            Priority: Minor

> The [Usage page|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/usage.html] should provide information on how to use this plugin.  However, there is almost no mention of the available configuration options on this page.
> The navigation panel provides links to several example scenarios: [Compile Using A Different JDK|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/examples/compile-using-different-jdk.html], [Compile Using -source and -target javac Options|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/examples/set-compiler-source-and-target.html], etc.  These are (no doubt) very helpful for people solving those specific problems.  However, there is apparently no page that provides the authoritative description of available configuration options.
> Please add a page that provides a list of available configuration options, their expected formats, the default value (if that option is not specified), and the semantics if the value is specified.
