[dev oct 16] <checklinks> sometimes misses bad links, such as this one from openide/api/doc/org/openide/windows/doc-files/api.html: Details in section <A HREF="#XXX">4.4</A>.
P3 is probably an overstatement.
Pinging for update. This issue is still new.
Fixed. committed Up-To-Date 1.5 nbbuild/antsrc/org/netbeans/nbbuild/CheckLinks.java
does this address the issue with anchors?
Which issue in particular? I hope so. I checked that it finds links to missing files (HTML, non-HTML via a href=, and images via img src=); duplicated anchor names within an HTML file; links to outside files with bad anchor references; links within the document with bad anchor references. Should be everything you need, I hope.
In the past, references to anchors have turned up as missing links. I haven't had a chance to check the fix on my machine, because I've had some snafu with ant (maybe related to the installation of a different JDK).
