Major Description
On Windows `generate-rest-docs` goal of `maven-jira-plugin` calls `maven-javadoc-plugin` with:
additionalparam: -output "C:\path\to\target\classes\resourcedoc.xml"
If this argument was passed to `javadoc.exe` directly, I'm pretty sure this would work. However, the javadoc plugin generates an argument file[1] named "options" and executes:
javadoc.exe ... @options
The file contains all arguments with unescaped backslashes, although javadoc command documentation[2] suggests:
If a filename contains embedded spaces, put the whole filename in double quotes, and double each backslash ("My Files
Stuff.java")
javadoc plugin version "2.4" is hardcoded in jira plugin, but I see no related changes in "2.10.4" in AbstractJavadocMojo.addCommandLineOptions() .
