Before there was ever a link tag, JDK 1.1 javadoc generated files of the
form packagename.classname.html The only way to reference them was directly.
Somewhere in the migration process from NetComponents to Commons Net, the
links must have been overlooked, but got the org.apache.commons.net in
them from a substitution to fix up the package names. It should be easy
enough to do a
find src/ -name "*.java" -print | xargs \
perl -pi -e 's/<a\s+href="([^"]+)\.html">/[EMAIL PROTECTED] $1}/g' \
-e 's/<a\s+href="([^"]+)\.html(#[^"]+)">/[EMAIL PROTECTED] $1$2}/g'
to fix most of it up. The substitution expressions are off the top of my
head and surely need tweaking; they also generate fully qualified class names.
If you want, I can fix it up.
