Creating JavaDocs (HELP!)
I posted this on the Java Programming section, didn't know this forum for javadocs existed.....
Hi, I wrote here yesterday asking about javadocs and looking for information on them. I found this website, which is great and full of information about javadocs.
http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/docs/tooldocs/win32/javadoc.html
But it doesn't clearly tell me how to load them. I've heard using, I think it was SDK or JDK somehow will compile the API and put in all the comments, create HTML etc etc.....but the question is how?
Where I work, the javadocs are created in America using MKS (like Visual Source Safe) you just put them in and a nightly build compiles everything, but here in sunny Scotland, I have had to copy all the current javadocs to a server that doesn't have anything like that on it and is specific for my needs. I have created code and put in all the javadocs comments in and now I need to compile it via SDK or JDK to get it all to appear. So how?
Is there any other sites that give specific instruction on how SDK/JDK would do this. Basically an instruction guide. Or if somebody out there in the Java world has done it and could write down the basic instructions I could work it out from there?
Since this was written I have found the javadoc.exe. But how does it work?
What do I have to put in my class path.......and please don't write, set -classpath, path1; path2 etc...thats all on the website and is of no use to me whatsoever?!
Thanks all in advance for help that I hopefully will receive!
Mark
