package.html and doc-files - do they have to be in the source tree?

Hi, I was wondering if it is necessary for a package.html and doc-file directory for a given package to be in the that package or can it be specified that package.html etc for the given package resides elsewhere (ie,not on the source tree)? Thanks

Javadoc looks for package.html and the doc-files directory only in

the packages directory and nowhere else.

You could use the doc-files directory at the root of the source

tree and point to it using {@docRoot}. But it appears you would

like it to be outside the source tree.

You could modify Javadoc to get package.html and doc-files

from another location. If you'd like help on this, contact us at
