 Hi,
 
 I just have 2 Java Doc questions:
 
 1: Are the links in JavaDoc in Eclipse supposed to work? If so, and trick
 in setting it up? As an example, when I am examining JavaDoc for List,
 click on the first link, 'Java Collections Framework', it attempts to
 jump, clears the JavaDoc window and just displays the string
 'blank../../../guide/collections/index.html'
 
 I see that under Libraries, my the JRE System Library, my JavaDoc points
 to http://java.sun
 should I get the docs and point this to a local
 location?
 
 
 2: I am also new to Java and am wondering if there is any JavaDoc
 documentation on the Java language itself (eg. how do I use 'static'
 again?), if so, where would I get it and how do I set it up.
 
 Regards
 Colin

| Eclipse User  |  |  |  |  | I haven't done any javadoc with eclipse, but when I did it with ant, I used the following for an app. This is from my ant build.xml. (Maybe
 what I used will help you figure out what eclipse needs.)
 
 <target name="docs">
 <mkdir dir="${dir_docs}" />
 
 <javadoc
 destdir="${dir_docs}"
 author="true"
 version="true"
 use="true"
 defaultexcludes="yes"
 stylesheetfile="${dir_src}/doc-files/stylesheet.css"
 overview="${dir_src}/doc-files/overview.html">
 <fileset dir="${dir_src}">
 <patternset refid="source.non_test.non_html" />
 </fileset>
 <classpath refid="aws_classpath" />
 <link
 href=" http://acegisecurity.org/multiproject/acegi-security/apidocs /" />
 <link href="http://static.springframework.org/spring/docs/1.2.x/api/" />
 <link href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/" />
 <link href="http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/api/" />
 <link
 href=" https://calnet.berkeley.edu/developers/documentation/java/aw sv3/4.0.0/"
 />
 </javadoc>
 </target>

 Only complete URLs work - relative ones aren't supported yet.

 No, but this is explained in the Java Language Specification.

 I'm not sure the JavaDoc view is intended to operate as a full browser.
 My understanding is that it is only to view the JavaDoc for whatever is
 under the cursor.
 I suggest you look in Bugzilla (http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs) to see if
 there is anything about it there. Feel free to file an enhancement
 request if you don't' find anything relevant already entered.

 No, JavaDoc is strictly a library-level thing, not language-level.
 You may want to check the various Eclipse plug-in repository sites to
 see if there is a third-party plugin for language-level help.
 
 Hope this helps,
 Eric
