Javadoc question (using NetBeans 6.7.1)

[Lothar Behrens]

Hi,

I have a netbeans project that need to load other packages, thus I
usually have to generate javadoc for all packages separately. To
simplify this I search for a solution to get 1.) one documentation and
2.) can generate without the use of netbeans.

I have read a bit about the sub packages command argument but I am a
newby and have to quickly solve the problem.

Thanks for any comments,

Lothar

You can use Ant and the javadoc task [1]. This is Netbeans-
independent and most IDEs come with integrated Ant-support
(I'm using Eclipse, but would be surprised if that's not
the case for NB), so you can create and start these scripts
directly from there but - using the ant-command-shell - e.g.
for the automated nightly build as well.
