Hi,

Anyone know of a Web service that one can point an accessible JavaDoc
jar such as:

    http://download.java.net/maven/2/com/sun/jersey/jersey-client/1.0-ea-SNAPSHOT/jersey-client-1.0-ea-SNAPSHOT-javadoc.jar

and from that browse the javadoc?

For example:

   http://javadoc.browser.com/http://download.java.net/maven/2/com/sun/jersey/jersey-client/1.0-ea-SNAPSHOT/jersey-client-1.0-ea-SNAPSHOT-javadoc.jar!/index.html

This seems like a neat way to browse rather than hosting the JavaDoc
explicitly.

Incidentally there is a service in NetBeans that allows you to a
similar thing. If you open a Jersey sample in NetBeans go to the
libraries you will see a JavaDoc icon. This means you can right client
to view the JavaDoc. It refers to the javadoc jar in the locally
cached repo.

Paul.
