<h2><a name="javadoc">Javadoc/<i>Javadoc2</i></a></h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>Generates code documentation using the javadoc tool.</p>
<p>The source directory will be recursively scanned for Java source files to process
but only those matching the inclusion rules, and not matching the exclusions rules
will be passed to the javadoc tool. This
allows wildcards to be used to choose between package names, reducing verbosity
and management costs over time. This task, however, has no notion of
&quot;changed&quot; files, unlike the <a href="javac.html">javac</a> task. This means
all packages will be processed each time this task is run. In general, however,
this task is used much less frequently.</p>
<p>This task works seamlessly between different javadoc versions (1.1,
1.2 and 1.4), with the obvious restriction that the 1.2 attributes
will be ignored if run in a 1.1 VM.</p>
<p>NOTE: since javadoc calls System.exit(), javadoc cannot be run inside the
same VM as ant without breaking functionality. For this reason, this task
always forks the VM. This overhead is not significant since javadoc is normally a heavy
application and will be called infrequently.</p>
<p>NOTE: the packagelist attribute allows you to specify the list of packages to
document outside of the Ant file. It's a much better practice to include everything
inside the build.xml file. This option was added in order to make it easier to
migrate from regular makefiles, where you would use this option of javadoc.
The packages listed in packagelist are not checked, so the task performs even
if some packages are missing or broken. Use this option if you wish to convert from
an existing makefile. Once things are running you should then switch to the regular
notation. </p>

<p><i><b>DEPRECATION:</b> the javadoc2 task simply points to the javadoc task and it's
there for back compatibility reasons. Since this task will be removed in future
versions, you are strongly encouraged to use <a href="javadoc.html">javadoc</a>
instead.</i></p>

<p>In the table below, 1.1 means available if your current Java VM is
a 1.1 VM, 1.2 for either 1.2 or 1.3 and 1.4+ for any VM of at least version 1.4.  1.2+
means any VM of at least version 1.2.</p>

<h4><a name="groupattribute">Format of the group attribute</a></h4>
<p>The arguments are comma-delimited. Each single argument is 2
space-delimited strings, where the first one is the group's title and
the second one a colon delimited list of packages.</p>
<p>If you need to specify more than one group, or a group whose title
contains a comma or a space character, using <a
href="#groupelement">nested group elements</a> is highly
recommended.</p>
<p>E.g., </p>
<pre>    group=&quot;XSLT_Packages org.apache.xalan.xslt*,XPath_Packages org.apache.xalan.xpath*&quot;
</pre>

<h3>Parameters specified as nested elements</h3>

<h4>packageset</h4>

<p>A <a href="../CoreTypes/dirset.html">DirSet</a>.  All matched
directories that contain Java source files will be passed to javadoc
as package names.  Package names are created from the directory names
by translating the directory separator into dots.  Ant assumes the
base directory of the packageset points to the root of a package
hierarchy.</p>

<p>The <code>packagenames</code>, <code>excludepackagenames</code> and
<code>defaultexcludes</code> attributes of the task have no effect on
the nested <code>&lt;packageset&gt;</code> elements.</p>

<h4>fileset</h4>

<p>A <a href="../CoreTypes/fileset.html">FileSet</a>.  All matched
files will be passed to javadoc as source files.  Ant will
automatically add the include pattern <code>**/*.java</code> to these
filesets.</p>

<p>Nested filesets can be used to document sources that are in the
default package or if you want to exclude certain files from
documentation.  If you want to document all source files and don't use
the default package, packagesets should be used instead as this
increases javadocs performance.</p>

<p>The <code>packagenames</code>, <code>excludepackagenames</code> and
<code>defaultexcludes</code> attributes of the task have no effect on
the nested <code>&lt;fileset&gt;</code> elements.</p>

<h4>package</h4>
<p>Same as one entry in the list given by <code>packagenames</code>.</p>

<h5>Parameters</h5>
<table width="60%" border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td>
    <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td>
    <td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">name</td>
    <td valign="top">The package name (may be a wildcard)</td>
    <td align="center" valign="top">Yes</td>
  </tr>
</table>

<h4>excludepackage</h4>
<p>Same as one entry in the list given by <code>excludepackagenames</code>.</p>

<h5>Parameters</h5>
Same as for <code>package</code>.

<h4>source</h4>
<p>Same as one entry in the list given by <code>sourcefiles</code>.</p>

<h5>Parameters</h5>
<table width="60%" border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td>
    <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td>
    <td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">file</td>
    <td valign="top">The source file to document</td>
    <td align="center" valign="top">Yes</td>
  </tr>
</table>

<h4>doctitle</h4>

<p>Same as the <code>doctitle</code> attribute, but you can nest text
inside the element this way.</p>

<h4>header</h4>

<p>Similar to <code>&lt;doctitle&gt;</code>.</p>

<h4>footer</h4>

<p>Similar to <code>&lt;doctitle&gt;</code>.</p>

<h4>bottom</h4>

<p>Similar to <code>&lt;doctitle&gt;</code>.</p>

<h4>link</h4>
<p>Create link to javadoc output at the given URL. This performs the
same role as the link and linkoffline attributes. You can use either
syntax (or both at once), but with the nested elements you can easily
specify multiple occurrences of the arguments.</p>

<h5>Parameters</h5>
<table width="60%" border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td>
    <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td>
    <td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">href</td>
    <td valign="top">The URL for the external documentation you wish to link to</td>
    <td align="center" valign="top">Yes</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">offline</td>
    <td valign="top">True if this link is not available online at the time of
                     generating the documentation</td>
    <td align="center" valign="top">No</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">packagelistLoc</td>
    <td valign="top">The location to the directory containing the package-list file for
                     the external documentation</td>
    <td align="center" valign="top">Only if the offline attribute is true</td>
  </tr>
</table>

<h4><a name="groupelement">group</a></h4>
<p>Separates packages on the overview page into whatever groups you
specify, one group per table. This performs the same role as the group
attribute. You can use either syntax (or both at once), but with the
nested elements you can easily specify multiple occurrences of the
arguments.</p>

<h5>Parameters</h5>
<table width="60%" border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td>
    <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td>
    <td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">title</td>
    <td valign="top">Title of the group</td>
    <td align="center" valign="top">Yes, unless nested <code>&lt;title&gt;</code> given</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">packages</td>
    <td valign="top">List of packages to include in that group. Multiple packages are separated with ':'.</td>
    <td align="center" valign="top">Yes, unless nested <code>&lt;package&gt;</code>s given</td>
  </tr>
</table>

<p>The title may be specified as a nested <code>&lt;title&gt;</code> element
with text contents, and the packages may be listed with nested
<code>&lt;package&gt;</code> elements as for the main task.</p>

<h4>doclet</h4>
<p>The doclet nested element is used to specify the doclet that javadoc will
use to process the input source files. A number of the standard javadoc arguments
are actually arguments of the standard doclet. If these are specified in the javadoc
task's attributes, they will be passed to the doclet specified in the
<code>&lt;doclet&gt;</code> nested element. Such attributes should only be specified,
therefore, if they can be interpreted by the doclet in use.</p>

<p>If the doclet requires additional parameters, these can be specified with
<code>&lt;param&gt;</code> elements within the <code>&lt;doclet&gt;</code>
element. These paramaters are restricted to simple strings. An example usage
of the doclet element is shown below:</p>

<pre>  &lt;javadoc ... &gt;
     &lt;doclet name=&quot;theDoclet&quot;
             path=&quot;path/to/theDoclet&quot;&gt;
        &lt;param name=&quot;-foo&quot; value=&quot;foovalue&quot;/&gt;
        &lt;param name=&quot;-bar&quot; value=&quot;barvalue&quot;/&gt;
     &lt;/doclet&gt;
  &lt;/javadoc&gt;

<h4><a name="tagelement">tag</a></h4>

<p>The tag nested element is used to specify custom tags. This option
is only available with Java 1.4.</p>

<p>If you want to specify a standard tag using a nested tag element
because you want to determine the order the tags are output, you must
not set the description attribute for those tags.</p>
