I am using JShell to test a library for which I made classes, sources, and javadoc available through the class path like so:
jshell --class-path library-javadoc.jar:library-sources.jar:library-jar-with-dependencies.jar
Still, when double tab after a documented Java identifier I receive:
<no documentation found>
How does JShell expect the documentation?
From the main menu, select Tools | Generate JavaDoc. In the dialog that opens, select a scope — a set of files or directories for which you want to generate the reference, and set the output directory where the generated documentation will be placed.
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.
Fortunately, all modern versions of the JDK provide the Javadoc tool – for generating API documentation from comments present in the source code. Prerequisites: JDK 1.4 (JDK 7+ is recommended for the latest version of the Maven Javadoc plugin)
Choose Tools > Java Platform Manager from the main window. Select the platform to which you want to add Javadoc in the left panel of the dialog box. In the Javadoc tab, click Add ZIP/Folder and specify the location of the Javadoc files. Click Close.
Seems to be a unresolved issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8186876
