Announcing Doclipse

I am happy to announce the first version of Doclipse, an Eclipse plug-in to help you write Java source files with Javadoc tags, either for documentation purposes or to be processed by a tool such as EJBGen or XDoclet.

Once you have installed Doclipse, you can add your own definition files for JavaDoc tags and they become available immediately in the editor.

Check out the Doclipse home page for more details.

This seems like a great plug-in but I can't get it to work with external files. I'm using Eclipse 3.0-RC2. When I'm specifying a directory read from nothing happens. Any ideas?

Great stuff. Thanks Cedric. Simple but _very_ useful.

Any chance of having it "full-featured" for Eclipse 2.1 ?
I just gave it a try with 2.1.3 but it doesn't show up the the Preferences - although it works properly in the Java Editor ;-)

Steve, can you send me the XML file you are trying to use? The XML parsing is very basic at this point so it might not validate and silently fail.

What are the differences between Jboss-IDE and Doclipse?

Hi there
I was trying to use the doclipse with wsad 5.1.1 but it is not showing up any workarounds or suggestions...

Hi,

I've installed Doclipse, but how do I get javadoc running within eclipse to recognize the new tags that I add? I get code-completion and the lot on the new tags but when running javadoc I get warnings that they are not recognized?
