Description Jesse Glick 2001-05-23 17:54:10 UTC

[Merlin b62, NB merlin-7] In JDK 1.4, Internal Javadoc Execution does not work,
it throws hefty exceptions. Our javadoc module is compiled against the 1.3
javadoc program, which has changed (incompatibly of course). The javadoc module
should either drop internal javadoc support or use reflection to support stuff
in 1.4. Attaching exceptions.

Comment 2 Petr Suchomel 2001-05-24 13:42:03 UTC

I removed temporarily Internal javadoc from Service Types. There are 
incompatible changes in JDK javadoc, rewriting Internal javadoc part for JDK 
1.4 can have hi effort of time, but without rewriting there is not chance to 
run Internal javadoc on JDK 1.4 anymore.
Changing resolution to LATER.

Comment 3 Petr Suchomel 2001-10-23 08:49:05 UTC

Internal javadoc is disabled under JDK 1.4
