How is the JavaDoc Hover handling HTML? [message #193215] |

Hi,
I wonder what class the JavaDoc Hover Shell is using in order to display JavaDoc
that contains HTML properly. For example, tags are removed, <b> shown as Bold
Text and lists shown with "-". Does it use the Forms toolkit, or a different
approach?
That is exactly what I would need for my application, since the Browser widget
in some situations is too heavyweight.
Thanks for help,
Ben

The right way is to use the Browser widget. We plan to release a
BrowserInformationControl which allows to show full HTML. Currently we
convert a very small subset of HTML to text using the internal
HTMLTextPresenter.
