Newbie to Java Doc

Hello All,
I am pretty new to JavaDoc - i got a general hang of it and did some sample java doc generations for some java files to understand more better. Now I have been requested to create custom javadoc tags for an existing project. How do I go about this? It would be appreciated if anyone could help me out with pointers .
Thanks

Depending on how complex the produced output of your custom tags should be you can either use Javadoc's -tag option or write a custom Taglet.
See [http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/tooldocs/windows/javadoc.html#tag] and [http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/javadoc/taglet/overview.html] for related documentation.

Its probably a newbie question,can some please show me how to create java docs using java,I know that if I have comments started like this
@param
@return

it will be shown in the docs,but what is the syntax to get this functionality,

On my system this information is in the directory C:\jdk1.3\docs\tooldocs\javadoc. Look in the analogous directory on your system.

Where are the latest java docs for the 9i JDBC drivers

Thanks,

I believe they're right on the download page where you download the drivers.

Question about the java doc of String.intern() method

hi all, my native language is not english, and i have a problem when reading the java doc of String.intern() method. the following text is extract from the documentation:
When the intern method is invoked, if the pool already contains a string equal to this String object as determined by the equals(Object) method, then the string from the pool is returned. Otherwise, this String object is added to the pool and a reference to this String object is returned.
i just don't know the "a reference to this String object is returned" part, does the "the reference to this String" means the string that the java keyword "this" represents or the string newly add to the string pool?
eg,
String s=new String("abc"); //create a string
s.intern(); //add s to the string pool, and return what? s itself or the string just added to string pool?greate thanks!

Except for primitives (byte, char, short, int, long, float, double, boolean), every value that you store in a variable, pass as a method parameter, return from a method, etc., is always a reference, never an object.
String s = "abc"; // s hold a reference to a String object containing chars "abc"
foo(s); // we copy the reference in variable s and pass it to the foo() method.
String foo(String s) {
return s + "zzz"; // create a new String and return a reference that points to it.
s.intern(); //add s to the string pool, and return what? s itself or the string just added to string pool?intern returns a reference to the String object that's held in the pool. It's not clear whether the String object is copied, or if it's just a reference to the original String object. It's also not relevant.

Problem with Java doc -- any ideas

This is the command which produces the java docs:
javadoc -d docs -author -overview e:\workspace\ckviewer\src\overview.html -doctitle
"CkEntry / CkViewer Application and APIs" -sourcepath e:\workspace\ckviewer\src
cprs.as400 cprs.ckentry cprs.ckviewer cprs.pc5250 cprs.roi cprs.util
neva vistech.imageviewer vistech.jai.render vistech.util The java docs are built correctly except that the package.html files for each source folder are being left out. These are the errors:
E:\ckviewer\ckviewer.jar: Body tag missing from HTML
E:\ckviewer\ckviewer.jar: Body tag missing from HTML
E:\ckviewer\ckviewer.jar: Body tag missing from HTML
E:\ckviewer\ckviewer.jar: Body tag missing from HTML
E:\ckviewer\ckviewer.jar: Body tag missing from HTML
E:\ckviewer\ckviewer.jar: Body tag missing from HTML
E:\ckviewer\ckviewer.jar: Body tag missing from HTML
E:\ckviewer\ckviewer.jar: Body tag missing from HTML
E:\ckviewer\ckviewer.jar: Body tag missing from HTML
E:\ckviewer\ckviewer.jar: Body tag missing from HTMLOne error message for each of the 10 packages. What I don't understand is that the source within the packages is found. Each package is documented, methods listed, etc. The package.html is not processed.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Bill

I'm not familiar with the -overview option, but I bet
it's complaining about your overview.html file.That is a good suggestion but actually the overview file is being processed and shows up in the java docs. The "package.html" files in each of the source folders are being ignored. There are 10 source folders, 10 "package.html" files and 10 errors.
Any other ideas or suggestions how to call javadoc?
Thanks

How to know whether a method is thread-safe through the java-doc?

In some book, it says that SAXParserFactory.newSAXParser() is thread-safe,but in the java-doc,it doesn't say that.
newSAXParser
public abstract SAXParser newSAXParser()
throws ParserConfigurationException,
SAXExceptionCreates a new instance of a SAXParser using the currently configured factory parameters.
Returns:
A new instance of a SAXParser.
Throws:
ParserConfigurationException - if a parser cannot be created which satisfies the requested configuration.
SAXException - for SAX errors.
I want to know, how to know whether a method is thread-safe?

System.out is a PrintStream object. None of the methods there use the synchronized modifier, but if you look in the source code, you will find out it is thread-safe, because it will use synchronized blocks whenever it writes some text.
The source code is in the src.jar file which you can extract.
I didn't find any comments about that PrintStream is thread-safe in the API.

Java Docs for the Module Process Classes

Hi,
I would like to start creating my own JDBC and file-based modules for interface development. I have found several SDN contributions which step through the creation of these modules. These are very helpful.
However, I have not yet found comprehensive documentation describing the classes used in module develpment. i.e.:
- com.sap.aii.af.mp.module.Module
- com.sap.aii.af.mp.module.ModuleContext
- com.sap.aii.af.mp.module.ModuleData
Does anyone know where to find the Java Docs for these classes? Or is there any other equivalent explanation of how to use these classes, their methods and fields?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Carl,
Another link for you
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/87/3ef4403ae3db12e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
This says that the java documentation is available in the example adapter/module that is there with XI.
I vaguely remembering seeing the docu..it was long back though..right now i donot have access to a system...
Get the rar(java archive) that i talked about in the above link...
Thanks,

Java Docs for Internet sales

I was looking for the ISA Java docs and tried to download the file ISAWAC40SP09P_9-10002109.SAR, but I cannot find it anywhere. SAP site has file ISAWAC40SP08_0-20000529.SAR but the javadocs are missing. Could anyone please let me know the location from where I can download the file ISAWAC40SP09P_10-10002109.SAR or alternatively Java docs for Internet sales

Hi Pankaj,
you can try with the first patch of the SP 9 - for example try the file ISAWAC40SP09_0-10002109.SAR. Extract the file using the sapcar program and search for docs.sar file where the documents are.
I hope this will help you.

Looking for JAVA DOC

Hi all,
I'm looking for java doc about web dynpro (with Sap Netweaver developer studio).
I need knowing sometihng about standard methods.
Any one can help me?
Thanks
enzo

Hi Enzo,
Simple. Open your NWDS IDE and go to Help --> SAP Web AS documentation --> SAP Web AS Technologies and give the search query as "webdynpro api". You will get the javadoc installed in your system.

JTooltips and Generating Java Docs

Hey its me......again anyway I am working on a program and I don't know how to use JtootTips.
All I've done so far is make my JFrame, JPanel, JButtons, and some Strings.
What i want is when the mouse goes over JButton that does nothing (doesn't have action listener) it will show the text in my String Objects. I know using a JButton for this is dumb, but I don't know of anything else I can use as a "place holder". If plausible, I can add the action Listener to the button, so when it is clicked the JToolTip shows up.
And for my other problem, I don't know what I need to generate Java Docs. I prefer something that can be used with JCreator 4.50.010 pro. Up till now, Ive just been copying and pasting Java Code in my .java files into class I make with BlueJ, but thats time consuming and its very annoying when I typo a class name.
The program I'm working on now is gonna have well over 20 classes and html files.
thanks for reading

I have no idea what you are on about when you talk about "converting" html to Java. It's like asking how to turn a Word document into an OS. Doesn't make much sense...

Where can i find the Java doc API for Sun Portal 6.2

Hi
I am looking for the java doc api for portal.. for e.g, i want to know the available classes under com.sun.portal.providers.util and method details under that..

There should be a file called javadocs.jar in your portal installation directory. Either under SUNWps/sdk or SUNWps/export.

Java doc comments

Im curious about these. I've never heard of java doc comments. I read about them in my ap computer science book ,and it didn't give very much detail on them, so i was wondering if someone could tell me a bit about them. i know I read something about being able to insert these comments into a html document or something.

Look at the page for details on writing comments in source code.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/javadoc/writingdoccomments/
Once you have documented the source code use the javadoc tool to generate the html documentation based on your comments in the source code.
You will need the java sdk(not jre) to run javadoc.
