getting javadoc to work with netbeans

Question

Hello I'm trying to make it so I can look at the javadoc with autocomplete in netbeans 6.7.1 but it tells me "javadoc not found". I tried adding it with the platform manager (I added c:/sun/SDK/docs/api) but it still doesn't work? What should I do?

Answer 1

1. Try to download the javadoc (from here), copy the zip file to a folder of your choice and configure the javadoc in Java platforms as follow:

   

2. If it still doesn't work, try to delete %USERPROFILE%\.netbeans\6.7\var\cache

Answer 2

I don't have an answer, I have a question. I have downloaded hibernate 3 and am trying to get the javadoc for that. I can't seem to get javadocs loaded for anything I download. I always get the jar file, the javadoc zip file and the source file. And during autocomplete it keeps on saying javadoc not found. I am currently using 6.9, but it has been a problem in 6.8 and 6.5. Any solutions?
