Re: Best strategy to solve JavaHelp issue

[antonio]

Hi,

I think this recipe deserves a small tutorial on our website.

We're currently under an Apache-wide migration of Jenkins that is 
stopping our web-site publishing job. Maybe within a few days we can set 
up a small page with this.


Kind regards,
Antonio

Trying it just now, the .zip file does not have a

Hoping to build the jhall.jar, I

 1. downloaded the source from github.com/javaee/javahelp. and
 2. in a CentOS 7 virtual machine (since my Windows 10 machine doesn't
have the required build tools) I ran make from the
javahelp-2.0_05/jhMaster folder.

This eventually gives a set of errors.  Alas, I'm too much of a noob in 
both Linux and Java to figure out what to try next.


Maybe someone here will have a suggestion.

Re: Best strategy to solve JavaHelp issue

[Jean-Claude Dauphin]

Hi,

I am not sure it is the right way to do it but here is how I included
JavaHelp in my application suite to migrate it from NetBeans 8.2 to
NetBeans 11.3.

1)  Downloaded JavaHelp from https://github.com/javaee/javahelp/releases

2)  Unzipped the file

3)  Added the jhall.jar as a wrapped jar into the modules that use
JavaHelp

(from \javahelp-2.0_05\binary\javahelp-2_0_05\jh2.0\javahelp\lib folder)

4)   To avoid the error message “*You must set 'jhall.jar' (e.g. in
private.properties) to the location of jsearch.jar from a JavaHelp
distribution*” I checked the file issuing this error message



NetBeans-11.3\netbeans\harness\build.xml



  







You must set 'jhall.jar' (e.g. in
private.properties) to the location of jsearch.jar from a JavaHelp
distribution





….





Then I copied jsearch.jar into NetBeans-11.3\netbeans\harness\antlib and
renamed it jsearch-2.0_05.jar



I am pretty sure this is not the right method but it worked for me


Best wishes,

JCD

No, that avenue won’t be productive, its licensing is simply prohibitive to
Apache.

Jaroslav Tulach was asking a couple of years ago whether it was also
licensed CDDL. What happened to this line of thinking?

Re: Best strategy to solve JavaHelp issue

[Geertjan Wielenga]

JavaHelp is not included in Apache NetBeans GitHub because it is GPL
licensed, which is against Apache policy, and therefore is also not part of
Apache NetBeans, it never has been and never will be unless it is licensed,
which seems unlikely to happen. It is something you'll need to add yourself
somehow -- someone who figures out how should share that with this
mailing list.

Re: Best strategy to solve JavaHelp issue

[Tim Mullé]

Hi,

Is there documentation somewhere that says JavaHelp is not available? I don’t 
see any mention of JavaHelp missing in 11.x on this link: 
https://netbeans.apache.org/wiki/DevFaqHelpGuidelines.asciidoc 



The reason I ask is that in 11.3 I can happily create a ‘Java Help Set’ for my 
module and the wizard creates all the necessary files and module..leading me to 
believe everything is ok.

However, when I try to build the module I get the following exception when 
building using NetBeans 11.3 with OpenJDK 11.


An annotation processor threw an uncaught exception.
Consult the following stack trace for details.

The simplest solution is to just compile your own Platform with the
javahelp module and go on your merry way.

Re: Best strategy to solve JavaHelp issue

[Geertjan Wielenga]

JavaHelp is GPL licensed and has not been donated by Oracle to Apache, so
had to be excluded from Apache NetBeans GitHub. So far I don’t think anyone
has figured out how it can be reincluded in a NetBeans Platform app, if you
manage to do it, would be great if you’d share your findings.

I've been wondering about this myself.

Maybe an integrated JavaFX web browser?

There must have been some thought discussion about this in the NetBeans 
team.


What's the current thinking/plan?

Best strategy to solve JavaHelp issue

[Jean-Claude Dauphin]

Hello,

I have tried to build my application with Apache NetBeans 11.3 but got an
error about JavaHelp.

An annotation processor threw an uncaught exception.
Consult the following stack trace for details.
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sun/java/help/search/Indexer
...
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
com.sun.java.help.search.Indexer
at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:381)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:424)

My application is a modules suite and non commercial.
I know that JavaHelp is not part of Apache NetBeans but what would be the
best strategy to solve that issue

Thank you in advance for any advice on this issue
Best regards,
Jean-Claude
