Hello

I have no JavaDoc comments for all J2EE classes for instance if I type:
request.getUserPrincipal() it should show the yellow box with the text:
Returns a java.security.Principal object containing the name of the current authenticated user. If the user has not been authenticated, the method returns null.

Usually I define libraries in Preferences | Java User Libraries which I attach the source code. For the J2EE classes I have only the JavaDoc from Sun http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/download.html. I have this installed . In appserver\docs\api is the relevant documentation.
Preferences | MyEclipse | J2EE Project | Library Sets doesn’t allow to add Sourcecode or JavaDoc to the jar Files.
That’s why I have added the docu to Project | Properties | Java Build Path | Libraries | J2EE Classpath Container ==> javax.servlet.jar ==> javadoc location (.. AppServer/docs/api/) Validate check is OK.
But this doesn’t work in the editor and the added JavaDoc is not permanently saved in the dialog.

Any help is very appreciated!!

Regards,
Ralph

Ralph this is a known bug, we appologize. For the time being, you can work around this by creating your own User Library and using that in your project.

I have tried this:
– create a blank.jar with only a blank directory
– then created a user lib j2ee Docs (Window | Prefereces ..)
+ added the blank.jar because I have no j2ee source code (and I want to use the libs from MyEclipse)
+ edited for blank.jar the Java Doc location to this which I get from SUN homepage
– added the user lib j2ee Docs to my project

But this is also not working. Can you please say me, what I make wrong?

Regards,
Ralph

Ralph,
What I meant was to download the J2EE JARs and source code yourself and attch them to your own user library.
