[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-10325) improve jenkins javadoc warnings from test-patch.sh

Colin Patrick McCabe created HADOOP-10325:
---------------------------------------------

             Summary: improve jenkins javadoc warnings from test-patch.sh
                 Key: HADOOP-10325
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10325
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe


Currently test-patch.sh uses {{OK_JAVADOC_WARNINGS}} to know how many warnings trunk is expected to have.  However, this is a fragile and difficult to use system, since different build slaves may generate different numbers of warnings (based on compiler revision, etc.).  Also, programmers must remember to update {{OK_JAVADOC_WARNINGS}}, which they don't always.  Finally, there is no easy way to find what the *new* javadoc warnings are in the huge pile of warnings.

We should change this to work the same way the javac warnings code does: to simply build with and without the patch and do a diff.  The diff should be saved for easy perusal.  We also should not complain about warnings being removed.
