Trying to invoke javadoc tag within Ant problem.

[untzkhan]

Hello there,

In my build.xml file, this is the code snippet for my <javadoc> target:

<target name = "javadoc" description = "Generates JavaDoc">
<echo message="Generating API Javadocs...."/>
<mkdir dir = "${docs.dir}/javadoc" />
<javadoc packagenames="com.prototype.util.*" destdir="${docs.dir}/javadoc" author="true"
version="false" use="true" windowtitle="My Prototype API" doctitle="Prototype" bottom="Copyright © 2004 Unnsse Khan. All Rights Reserved.">
<classpath>
<!-- Include all JAR files in my local library --> <fileset dir="${lib.dir}"> <include name="*.jar"/> </fileset> <pathelement path="${build.dir}"/>
</classpath>
<sourcepath> <pathelement path="${src.dir}"/
</sourcepath>
</javadoc>
</target>

-----------------------------------------------------------

The property variables (such as ${src.dir}) are specified in a build.properties file that looks like this:

code:
-----------------------------------------------------------
# build.properties
# Configuration file which works in conjunction with build.xml
# Generic build properties
build.dir=./classes
deploy.dir=./deploy
docs.dir=./docs
src.dir=./src
lib.dir=./lib
xml.dir=./xml
-----------------------------------------------------------
This is the output when I run it from the command line:

code:
-----------------------------------------------------------
F:\DevProjects\Java\J2EE Projects\Prototype>ant

javadocBuildfile: build.xml javadoc:
[echo] Generating API Javadocs....

BUILD FAILED

F:\DevProjects\Java\J2EE Projects\Prototype\build.xml:85: No source files and no packages have been specified.
Total time: 0 seconds

F:\DevProjects\Java\J2EEProjects\Prototype>

-----------------------------------------------------------

I didn't think it was so hard just to generate javadoc using Ant, apparently there something that I am doing wrong....

I would appreciate any suggestions....

Thanks again and Happy Holidays,
