Hello!

In brief: Attached is a shell script for running pdfdoclet[6], a Javadoc doclet component that generates PDF format documentation, instead of HTML, when used with the javadoc tool. For sake of convenience, I was going to send the PDF format ABCL javadoc generated by pdfdoclet, but the resulting PDF file is 13.3 megs in size. Maybe the little utility shell script, as attached, could be enough.

The PDF javadoc could be useful, i think,  in the interest of studying ABCL's Java API - perhaps more intermediately, for modeling ABCL's Java API in UML - for instance, using  Modelio[1], Argo[2], or Papyrus[3], on the laptop, and Cubetto Mobile[4] on the tablet.

As an additional plug: As far as the PDF format itself, and PDF's annotation support, typically on mobile, i tend to prefer Goodreader[5]. It offers good support for PDF annotations and so on.


PDFDoclet can also be used from Ant. I'm not very well familiar with Ant, offhand. Of course, I notice that Ant is used in ABCL - will take a look...


Cheers!
