Description dnedrow 2008-06-06 18:26:35 UTC 
I have been unable to use a jar file as a javadoc source for libraries.

When selecting a jar'd javadoc tree, NB displays the following error....

Invalid javadoc root JDocTest-javadoc.jar
The Javadoc root does not contain the index-files folder or the index-all.html file.

I'm unable to use jar'd javadoc files from any project, let alone my own.

This may be a problem in org.netbeans.modules.java.j2seplatform.libraries.JavadocForBinaryQueryLibraryImpl, but I haven't had time to do any 
troubleshooting.

Can anyone on the dev team confirm that they are able to select a jar file as a valid javadoc source?

OSX 10.5.3 (Intel), Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_05-b13-120)

Confirmed for Windows using NetBeans 6.1; I've unpacked the jar and rolled my own (making sure all the necessary files
are there), and I still have the same problem.

JDoc jar file that works
Comment 4 dnedrow 2008-07-10 19:50:47 UTC 
I've attached a jar file from Apple that actually works with NetBeans. I don't know what the difference is, unless it's some kind of meta-data issue.

Anyone on the NB team there?

Should be fixed by issue 124779.
