Javadoc 1.4.2
Tool

Java 2 SDK v1.4 Contents
Javadoc is a tool that parses the declarations and documentation comments in a set of source files and produces a set of HTML pages describing the classes, inner classes, interfaces, constructors, methods, and fields.

You can use Javadoc doclets to customize Javadoc output. A doclet is a program written with the doclet API that specifies the content and format of the output to be generated by the javadoc tool. You can write a doclet to generate any kind of text-file output, such as HTML, SGML, XML, RTF, and MIF. SunTM provides a "standard" doclet for generating HTML-format API documentation and an experimental MIF doclet for generating MIF, PDF, PS, RTF, FrameMaker, and other formats. Doclets can also be used to perform special tasks not related to producing API documentation. For example, a diagnostic doclet could be created to check that all class members of the classes on which Javadoc operates have documentation comments.
