Description pzajac 2004-08-12 16:24:35 UTC
There is possibly only add jar to the classpath
when is created project from antscript. To use
library from library manager is better because you
can set javadoc documentation to the library. The
javadoc is very usefull in java completion in
editor.

Wrong component.
Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2004-08-12 17:19:55 UTC
As designed. The original build script itself does not operate on IDE
libraries, it operated on JARs; the freeform configuration is just a
description of that script.

You can get code completion etc. working fine so long as there is some
association between the actual JAR in the classpath and some Javadoc;
one way of doing this is to create a library with that JAR and the
desired Javadoc. (Same for sources.)
