Hello fellow Netbeans users,
In Ubuntu 18 LTS with the Openjdk11 from the Ubuntu repository, I run
Netbeans 11 and it works fine, except for the automatically popping-up
Javadoc help when we I type JDK classes and its functions.
Firstly it's strange how I have to add the Javadoc at all. In NB's menu
"Tools → Java Platforms" there's a tab "Sources" and "Javadoc".
1) I tried to use the tab "Javadoc" first, and had to add all the folders
"javadoc/api/java.*" from an unzipped Javadoc11 bundle.
This way some JDK functions show the correct Javadoc pop-up help, however
many functions just show an empty space, like for example when in Netbeans I
enter:
BigInteger big;
big. _
Then the pop-up comes and lists all BigInteger functions but their Javadoc is
empty each.
So I tried another approach:
2) From NB's men "Tools → Java Platforms" in the tab "Javadoc" I removed all
entries, and used the other tab "Sources", where I added all the "java.*"
folders from an unzipped Java11 source bundle (file src.zip).
This way for many more JDK classes and functions their pop-up window works
fine, like the mentioned BigInterger one.
However many classes from the java.sql package I can't make to work.
For example I enter in NB:
java.sql.Statement stat;
stat. _
Then I get a pop-up listing all functions, but for many there's a message
"Javadoc not found" in the pop-up window. Like these functions:
addBatch(…)
execute(…)
executeUpdate(…)
etc.
For these however the pop-up window shows the correct Javadoc:
cancel(…)
close(…)
executeBatch(…)
etc.
What am I missing, please? Or do other users have similar problems?
Thanks a lot for any help.
