Hello, 

In an enterprise legacy project, we are using Jackson in v. 1.8.2.
However, neither sources nor Javadocs are attached to the included library.

I had no luck to find the Javadoc for this old version anywhere. Everywhere I looked, only v. 2+ is available.
Even the Wayback machine did not parse the whole Javadoc at the old homepage ( http://jackson.codehaus.org/1.8.2/javadoc/index.html )

Is there any resource where I can retrieve or browse the Javadoc (or sources) from?

Thank you in advance!

Right, Jackson 1.x was hosted at Codehaus SVN, which is long gone.

But I think this:

https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-1

has what you need, check branch 1.8.
`master` is for 1.9[.13] which is not all that far out either.
In both cases you'd need to regenerate javadocs using Ant... probably
just `ant clean javadoc`.

I hope this helps!

Thank you very much, this was exactly what I was looking for.
Had to dig a bit into the history and now I could even check out the 1.8.2 minor version as well.
ant jdoc worked flawless.

Even could attach the source code and JDoc in Eclipse to the jackson libs on the build path, making lookups a breeze.

Thanks!
