To work with Javadoc filesystems that were created outside of the IDE, you must mount them in the IDE. Directories must be mounted at the default package, and the sources in them must be in packages corresponding to their position relative to the mount point. If a filesystem is mounted at the wrong point, the IDE can not find the Javadoc files.
If you want to work with the Javadoc files from a JAR or zip file, that JAR or zip file must be mounted individually as an archive file. Likewise, any Javadoc files you need from an HTTP connection must be mounted in the IDE.
To mount a directory:
If the directory contains Javadoc index files, the directory is added to the Javadoc tab. If the directory does not contain Javadoc index files, an alert box asks if you want to mount the directory. If you click Yes, the directory is mounted, and you can set a relative mount point for the directory as follows:
To mount a JAR or zip file:
See the preceding procedure for instructions on how to handle a JAR file or zip file does not contain Javadoc index files.
To mount an HTTP filesystem:
The URL is added to the Javadoc tab.
