Extracting specific detial about class from the JAVA API created by Javadoc
hi ,
Bacialy I need to get detials of all classes from the Java packages for my project. So i thought getting detials from the Java API document might be one way of doing it. If any one tell me some package or software which can get particulat text from the API document that will be great.
Thank you,
Raj
Hi,
I think, much easier way would be to write a little doclet. That doclet would take the information you need directly from the Doclet API and generate by it a plain text with the content you wish (for instance, as an SQL script that loads everything into a certain database).
Obtaining this from the generated HTML documentation just adds one extra step (and a lot more complicated, by the way).
Also, you can avoid even writing a doclet.
There is a tool called DocFlex/Javadoc:

It is a template-driven doclet, which can be easily programmed to do the job. (However, a license will be needed).
