Description Sam Tilders 2002-01-01 05:12:18 UTC 
The javac task allows the source to be specified as either 1.3 or 1.4.
When using the javadoc task to create documentation for the same source, 
javadoc complains about the assert statements.
Unlike the javac task there is no way to tell the javadoc task to pass the 
source option to javadoc.
Comment 1 Sam Tilders 2002-01-02 15:33:33 UTC 
This can probably be closed as specifying
additionalparam="-source 1.4"
makes it work.
Perhaps that should end up as an example in the documentation though.

changed title for searching; left open as it should be fixed with a source 
attr or a doc patch. I am minded towards consistency with <javac>, and the 
attribute, even if it has too many parameters already.
Comment 3 Steve Loughran 2002-03-17 08:19:37 UTC 
marking this as a 1.4 bug in the keywords
Comment 4 Stefan Bodewig 2002-04-08 16:12:21 UTC 
fixed in nightly build 2002-04-09.

Note that -source is an option of the standard doclet, so Ant will ignore it if
you specify a custom doclet.
