Following the link Upgrade to Java 10 breaks links in Javadoc comments to JDK packages and trying to reproduce the same while I could set the build configuration to :
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.7.0</version>
<configuration>
<source>9</source>
<target>9</target>
</configuration>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.ow2.asm</groupId>
<artifactId>asm</artifactId>
<version>6.1</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0</version>
<configuration>
<additionalOptions>
<additionalOption>-html5</additionalOption>
</additionalOptions>
<nodeprecatedlist>true</nodeprecatedlist>
<notree>true</notree>
<quiet>true</quiet>
<show>public</show>
<splitindex>true</splitindex>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>attach-javadocs</id>
<goals>
<goal>jar</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Note - This works successfully with Java-9 on executing mvn clean verify -X
.
On the other hand, if I change the source and target to 10(Java-10), the build fails with a PluginExecutionException
caused by NullPointerException
with following stack trace :
Execution attach-javadocs of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin:3.0.0:jar failed.

Is the Javadoc plugin not compatible with Java-10? Or am I missing some configuration there?
Version details in case required -
Apache Maven 3.5.3 (3383c37e1f9e9b3bc3df5050c29c8aff9f295297; 2018-02-25T01:19:05+05:30) Maven home: /usr/local/Cellar/maven/3.5.3/libexec Java version: 10, vendor: Oracle Corporation Java home: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-10.jdk/Contents/Home Default locale: en_IN, platform encoding: US-ASCII OS name: "mac os x", version: "10.13.3", arch: "x86_64", family: "mac"
The problem was related to an issue in commons-lang which caused the issue as you can see in the stack trace.
This has been fixed in current state of development maven-javadoc-plugin
. This needs to be released.
