Can you please provide more details. Eg. screenshot, etc.

Sorry, it appears that the wrong values in that case were caused by an intermediate build of the warnings plugin v4.0 that lacked the Javadoc parser.
Though I see on another project that a wrong value is shown in the graph. See the attached screenshot. The values for builds #51 and #52 have been processed by warnings v3.28 and are correct but then #53 (using warnings v4.4) shows wrong value where it should have 457.

Hmm, seems that there is no result at all (0 warnings). Does the same image appear if you enlarge the graph? Or press CTRL-F5 to recreate the graph...

And please attach the build.xml file of your build #53.

And finally: can you start another build just to see if the warnings count stays at zero in the graph...

It looks like it's greater than 0 (see screenshot of enlarged graph). CTRL-F5 doesn't have any effect (is that command anywhere documented?).
The build.xml file won't make you happy, the ant build uses more than 50 build.xml files in several different locations (actually the build is for https://github.com/projectwonder/wonder)

Sorry, I mean the build.xml file in Jenkins build folder of your project. There Jenkins serializes the build results. In that file I can check if the WarningsResult is correctly serialized.

Did you already start another build?

There is the build.xml file.
I did a new build for which I attached already a screenshot before (build #54) but that showed no change.

Ok, thanks. From the build.xml I see that there are 7 warnings for Java and 457 for JavaDoc.

Maybe the wrong result is used in the JavaDoc trend. Does the trend graph for Java warnings work?

The Java trend graph seems correct.
On another project I have 1 Java and 0 Javadoc warnings but both graphs show 1. So your assumption seems plausible.

Ok, I can reproduce the problem. Seems that always the first result is used...
