Javadoc Multiple Package Problem

I am having problems trying to create a javadoc of multiple packages. I have a directory named source with 6 separate packages: A, B, C, D, E, F.

I read the javadoc documentation on multiple packages but it did not help me. From my directory c:\source, I ranjavadoc -private A B C D E F, but ended up with "javadoc: No package, class, or source file found named ...". for each package. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

It should work that way. Check that you use the fully qualified package names (like com.domain.A).

Could you post the exact command you used? It might help spot a problem.

Ok, I have packages named messageboard, Showcase, and Review, with each in a separate folder in my source directory. I tried the following command from my source directory D:\>javadoc -private Showcase messageboard Review

and it returned javadoc: No package, class, or source file found named Showcase.

javadoc: No package, class, or source file found named messageboard.

javadoc: No package, class, or source file found named Review.

3 errors

Any ideas what I can do? I would really appreciate it.

You need to use -sourcepath to point to the directory that holds

the package directories.For example, if you have folders at:

D:\src\Showcase

D:\src\Review

D:\src\messageboard

Then do this:

javadoc -private -sourcepath D:\src Showcase messageboard Review

Thanks, that worked, but I have one more question:How do I put in package overview comments to be displayed on the main index.html page? Right now it just lists my packages names with a blank table cell next to each one.
