Thanks for your reply. I would like to do this in Ant eventually but I think it would be easier for me to understand it in dos/batch before I tackle it in Ant. I was originally doing a for-loop but one of our engineers told me it's wrong:

c:\masterproject>for /r %i in (*.java) do javadoc.exe  %i -d mydocs

Basically I'm starting at the root and looping/recursing down every path and looking for all .java files. Is this not correct?

Res:

You are gonna need to specify all the java files to javadoc against...

Type javadoc at the command line and it will tell you so :)

If you were on a *nix environment you could do something with find...

Curious...why don't you want to do this with Ant in your experimentation? Clearly it does so much for you (for instance iterating down in the dirs)...

Shouldn't javadoc automatically recurse through directories? It doesn't for me. I would like to run javadoc at the root of all my projects w/o telling it it each .java file. We have a multi-project platform all residing within a master project and each having their own src subfolder and many .java source files:

MasterProject
 proj1
    -src
 proj2
    -src
 proj3
    -src

The command below, in my original email, does not work for me. But if I generate a for-loop at the DOS prompt from the root of all the projects, I get it to work but the result is is not correct. All the examples out there are geared toward a single project. How can I get javadoc to recurse automatically? I do not see a command line option. Once I successfully run this at the command prompt or from a batch file, I will then convert it to Ant/xml.

Thanks

Almost wrong forum, I know...but...

I would like to test and run javadoc at a DOS prompt before writing ant code for it but the problem is that when I cd into my project and execute the following, I get an error1 and nothing happens.

c:\>cd Builds\project1
C:\Builds\project1>javadoc -sourcepath widgegts\src:3rdpary\scr *.java -d javadocs

javadoc: error - File not found: "*.java"
1 error

How come javadoc is not recursing through my subfolders?
