Description Svata Dedic 2002-12-06 15:00:34 UTC 
Doclet is not a something the user can "create".
Doclet is a class library which is invoked by
javadoc as a post-processing step. As such, it is
either a platform-supplied or a stand-alone tool,
although executable only through javadoc generation.

The UI of the part of Customizer/Wizard which is
devoted to the doclet therefore depends on which
doclet tool is selected by the user. Various
doclet have completely different formatting and
different needs for customization.

i'm a little confused... there is nothing that says the user creates a
doclet -i think the spec describes things in a fashion similar to what
you've said here...
Comment 2 Chris Ledantec 2002-12-10 16:05:57 UTC 
i believe this is completely addressed in the current version of the
spec with the Javadoc section fleshed out.
