Increase the number of reported Javadoc errors and warning when building with Maven

Increase the number of reported Javadoc errors and warning when building with Maven
I am using Maven to build a project which has somewhat suboptimal Javadoc comments.
I have noticed that no matter how many warnings I fix, I always get only 100 warnings reported:
Building index for all the packages and classes...
Generating ...targetsiteapidocsoverview-tree.html...
Generating ...targetsiteapidocsindex-all.html...
Generating ...targetsiteapidocsdeprecated-list.html...
Building index for all classes...
Generating ...targetsiteapidocsallclasses-frame.html...
Generating ...targetsiteapidocsallclasses-frame.html...

Generating ...targetsiteapidocsallclasses-noframe.html...
Generating ...targetsiteapidocsindex.html...
Generating ...targetsiteapidocsoverview-summary.html...
Generating ...targetsiteapidocshelp-doc.html...
100 errors
100 warnings
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
I would like to see all of the errirs and warnings or at least the total count.
How do I achieve this with Maven?

I have finally found the following configuration to work:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<additionalJOptions>
<additionalJOption>-Xmaxerrs</additionalJOption>
<additionalJOption>65536</additionalJOption>
<additionalJOption>-Xmaxwarns</additionalJOption>
<additionalJOption>65536</additionalJOption>
</additionalJOptions>
</configuration>
</plugin>
It basically passes -Xmaxerrs 65536
and -Xmaxwarns 65536
(as documented here) to javadoc
.
-Xmaxerrs 65536
-Xmaxwarns 65536
javadoc
