hello,

download javadoc&sources checks the remote repos for artifacts with
-source or -javadoc classifiers and downloads them. The IDE then
designates them as containing source/javadoc and they are sued for
hyperlinking the sources or for code completion.
However unfortunatelly most artifacts in the central repo don't have
javadoc or sources on display.

I'm not sure about the 2.3 version of mevenide (that one works with
5.5 and later builds) but the 3.0.2 version (that works only with the
6.0 M8+ netbeans builds) has also actions "install local sources" and
"install local javadoc" that takes a local zip of sources/javadoc and
puts them in the correct place in local repo for you.

Does it help? or is the problem somewhere else?

Regards

Milos

Hi,

I'm using the mevenide plugin to Netbeans from codehause. This works
fine in most cases. However, when having added a dependency (by
right-clicking on the Dependencies node of the project tree (in Projects
view)), I can then right-click on the JAR I've included and get a menue
saying "Download Javadoc & Source". But this has never worked. I've
tried placing both sourcefiles (as JAR or ZIP) and API-doc in my local
repository, but it still dont want to be integrated with Netbeans.

I was hoping that the "Download Javadoc and Source" would enable the
direct access to the API doc of the included JAR from within the editor.
Am I wrong ? If not, how do I set up the repository (locally, and our
company repo), and how do I write my POM to get this working ?

Thanks!
Arne Styve
