In the test I want to prepare javadocs only for the class org.apache.project.IncludeClass. All other classes located in packages io and org.apache.internal should be skipped.
Configuration I use is the following:
It works well for java8, but for java11 (actually since java9) it doesn't exclude the class org.apache.internal.subpackage.subsubpackage.ExcludeInternalSubSubClass.
I tried comment the "subpackages" setting and now it excludes the ExcludeInternalSubSubClass. This behavior is not obvious for me, I expect that exclusion rules should not depend on the "subpackages" setting.
I debug it and found:
javadoc -sourcepath ./src/main/java -subpackages org.apache -exclude org.apache.internal -d javadocfor both java version and it returns different result. I'm not sure is it expected behavior, but I'd expect the javadoc plugin will adjust for different java versions.
