[jira] [Comment Edited] (MJAVADOC-568) javadoc:jar fails when project has Automatic-Module-Name and (implicit) uses offlinelinks with element-list

--------------------------------------------------------

That's a good catch for the MANIFEST.MF file. Can you please improve the error message if the user fails to provide the manifest attribute (by accident or intentionally)? In such a case I still get the original error message which does not hint that adding a manifest would make a difference. I'm looking for an error message that indicates what's wrong and suggests "Try adding a Automatic-Module-Name entry in MANIFEST.MF or a module-info.java"

I also just found another bug which I will be filing momentarily.
