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
<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.
