I am trying to generate Java documentation in Eclipse. The source files are UTF-8 encoded and contain some umlauts. The resulting HTML files do not specify an encoding and do not use HTML entities, so the umlauts aren't displayed correctly in any browser.
What can I do to change this?
Step 1 − Open eclipse, select the option Project →Generate Javadoc. Step 2 − Select the javadoc.exe file from the bin folder of java installation directory, select the destination folder for the generated java doc and select Next. finish button.
In the Package Explorer view, select a Java project and click Project > Generate Javadoc with Diagrams > Automatically. In the Generate Javadoc wizard, under Javadoc command, select the Javadoc command (an executable file).
Accessing the Javadoc from NetbeansSelect the desired package, class or method name, right-click and select Show Javadoc. This will launch your default web browser and navigate to the Javadoc for the selected item.
Modified from Eclipse javadoc in utf-8:
Project -> Generate Javadoc -> Next -> on the last page, in Extra Javadoc options write:
-encoding UTF-8 -charset UTF-8 -docencoding UTF-8
See the -charset, -encoding and -docencoding flags for the javadoc command.
-encoding
specifies the input encoding-docencoding
specifies the output encoding-charset
makes javadoc include a meta tag with encoding infoIf you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
