How to generate Javadoc from command line

Question

Can anybody show me how to generate Javadoc from command line?

My project contains the package com.test and I want to put the generated documentation in

Answer 1

For example if I had an application source code structure that looked like this:

• C:\b2b\com\steve\util\
• C:\b2b\com\steve\app\
• C:\b2b\com\steve\gui\

Then I would do:

javadoc -d "C:\docs" -sourcepath "C:\b2b" -subpackages com

And that should create javadocs for source code of the com package, and all subpackages (recursively), found inside the "C:\b2b" directory.

Answer 2

Link to JavaDoc

I believe this will surely help you.

javadoc -d C:/javadoc/test com.mypackage
