> The output directory should default to {{${project.build.directory}}} instead of {{${project.reporting.outputDirectory}}}. Quoting my reasoning from https://github.com/apache/maven-jxr/commit/ae81a34ac616bf7e4ea4fa9d4eb09f0979eaccb1#commitcomment-130639906:

> (...) because the latter is simply wrong IMO. For stand-alone mojo execution, a plugin should not mess with Maven Site's default directory. Imagine a situation in which each module should get its own, self-consistent report when called stand-alone, but the site should contain an aggregate with a different structure or maybe no report from that plugin at all. The default would then pollute the site directory. This is why on the ML I asked you ([~michaelo]), if overriding a {{@Parameter}} annotation on a base class field by another {{@Parameter}} annotation on a setter in a subclass it is the right or canonical way to implement such a default override.
> BTW, like I also said before, Maven Javadoc Plugin, even though it does not use the abstract base class, implements the default correctly: build dir for stand-alone, report dir in site generation context.

> The javadoc is, BTW, still correct and does not need to be changed: In a site generation context, the reporting base directory will be set here automatically without any further changes due to:
> {code:java}
>     @Override
>     public void setReportOutputDirectory(File reportOutputDirectory) {
>         this.reportOutputDirectory = reportOutputDirectory;
>         this.outputDirectory = reportOutputDirectory;
>     }
> {code}
