Placing the “src.jar” (renamed from “src.zip”) into the right directory does the trick for Mac OSX.

Under Windows, I now have the problem, that when a JRE and a JDK is installed, Windows defaults to use the JRE. So I had to tweak somewhat arround to find the right directory which contains the “src.zip”.

Anyway, I’ve got it now up and running. Thanks for your help …

try {
jls.getJarManager().addJar(null);
JarInfo ji = new JarInfo(new File(“./bin”));
ji.setSourceLocation(new File(“./src”));
jls.getJarManager().addJar(ji);
} catch (IOException ioe) {
ioe.printStackTrace();
}

This adds both code completion for the standard JDK classes, as well as for classes in the RSTALanguageSupport project, both with Javadoc support (from the source). To launch the demo, I pointed to the 1.5.0 system JDK, which lives in this location:

System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5/Home

The library auto-detected the src.jar that lives in this directory, as it knows to scan for “src.jar” in the relative path OS X puts it in.

Do you have this JDK installed? Or perhaps a different one that contains src.jar? I noticed that my 1.6.x JDK does not contain src.jar, but my 1.4 and 1.5 both do.

Can you try modifying the DemoRootPane.java file as I did, to see if it works? This will test both source in a jar/zip, as well as in a directory.

I’ve done this:

JarInfo javaSrcInfo = new JarInfo(new File(“/Users/robertfisch/Desktop/src”));
javaSrcInfo.setSourceLocation(new File(“/Users/robertfisch/Desktop/src”));
((JavaLanguageSupport) ls).getJarManager().addJar(javaSrcInfo);

I’ve also tried to use directely the ZIP file, but that didn’t worked out either

You currently cannot point to a Javadoc zip file, you have to point to a source zip (or a directory of .java files). And being on OS X, I believe (could be mistaken though) the source in “src.jar” instead of “src.zip” inside of a JDK. I know I’ve tested this on OS X. On my particular machine, the Java 6 JDK did not include a src.jar, whereas the JDK5 did. Not sure if that’s because JDK5 is the “official” JDK version on OS X 10.5, or what. Nevertheless, it was able to successfully grab and use doc comments from src.jar when I pointed it to the Java 5 SDK.

But if you’re having trouble pointing to a source zip/jar file, can you provide a code snippet of how you’re trying to do it?

I’ve just put the new source into Unimozer and will do some tests later on…

Actually I wonder how I could tell the application to use the official JDK JavaDoc (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)? I’ve tried to use a “JarInfo” pointing to the ZIP, but this didn’t work out.

I’m running MAC OSX, having the JDK installed by the OS but not the JavaDoc…
