Javadoc for packages

Question

Hi!! i am trying to run javadoc from the command line. I want javadocs for a package. Currently i am typing :- javadoc -sourcepath c:\ech\src *.java c:\ech\src com.ech.health.bean
com.ech.health.bean is the package but gives me an error that "no source files found for the package
it does not load the source files which would create javadoc "html" file.
If some could show me how to type the path in the command line; i would really appreciate it.
Thanks a lot!!

I havent used the -sourcepath switch my self, but its most likely the * thats causing it to barf. i prefer to do the following:
If i have the following path structure
C:\Java\src\myPackage
C:\Java\src\myPackage\pack1
C:\Java\src\myPackage\pack2
C:\Java\src\myPackage\pack3
where the source files are included in the pack1,2,3 folders.
I cd to the src folder then exec the following command:
javadoc -d myPackageDocs myPackage.pack1 myPackage.pack2 myPackage.pack3
This is assuming of course that you keep all the source files in one general location. (the -d is for the output)
so for you, i think if you cd to the c:\ech\src folder, then go:
javadoc -d myDocs com.ech.health.bean
