Hi,
I can see the yellow popup from the Javadocs of my application, but how do
you incorporate the J2EE 1.4 API documentation? For example if I hover my
mouse over ActionForward, I only see
org.apache.struts.action.ActionForward in the yellow popup, but not the
description of it. I've downloaded the J2EE 1.4 API from Sun. Under
Project/Properties/Javadoc Location, I have the Javadoc location path set
to: file:/C:/j2eeapidocs/, which I can validate.
thanks a lot,
Won

1) This is a FAQ - please search previous messages before posting questions.
2) Eclipse uses the source attachment to generate the tool-tips (yellow
popup help boxes), not the Javadoc attachment. So you must attach the
source to the JARs you're using. There is a bugzilla request to change
that behavior, but it is not yet implemented.
3) the Struts code you are talking about is not part of J2EE - Struts is
an independent project from Jakarta/Apache, not Sun.
HTH,
Eric
