Adding umlgraph to our javadoc
by Stefano Maestri
I tried to add UmlGraph generated images to dna project javadocs.
The result is nice: http://www.javalinuxlabs.org/apidocs/index.html
I attached here the only modification needed to pom.xml to get this result.
UmlGraph can also model composition relation with custom javadocs tags,
but, IMHO the totally automatic results is fine and easy for all.
Also public method can be added to the model, but I think it's better to
have easy to read structural model and leave to javadoc deeper
descriptions of class components and methods.
The only problem with UmlGraph is that it depends on GraphViz, and this
dependencies can't be administered by maven, since graphvz isn't a java
package. UmlGraph just expect GraphViz instaed on building host and
fails if it isn't. I didn't find any elegant and brief way to solve the
problem: any suggestion?
BTW have Hudson's host GraphViz installed? Is this strong unmanaged
dependency acceptable for javadoc target?
IMHO enriched javadocs is nice and could help a lot community to
understand our sw architecture/class hierarchy. At least they helped me :)

The change has been incorporated into our JIRA. I'm not sure what

beginning with "DNA-XXX" and it looks like JIRA recognizes it.
