Description seancwall 2006-01-27 21:47:31 UTC 
I recently installed RC2 of Netbeans 5.0 and I created a new Web Application 
using the wizard.  When ever I try to use Alt-F1 on a servlet class or method 
to get the Javadocs, I get the message "Javadoc not found.  Use the Library 
Manager...".  I noticed that the Server Manager entry for the bundled Tomcat 
instance has a Javadoc tab where the J2EE 1.4 API doc .zip file is already 
listed.  Shouldn't the IDE pick up that Javadoc zip file when I've selected 
the bundled Tomcat as my deployment server?

Please evaluate.
Comment 2 Sherold Dev 2006-01-30 09:02:50 UTC 
-> j2eeserver
Comment 3 seancwall 2006-02-01 19:45:37 UTC 
This seems to be an intermittent problem, as I can currently view the servlet
docs via Alt-F1.
Comment 4 seancwall 2006-02-01 19:50:09 UTC 
Additional note:  I have selected "Bundled Tomcat 5.5.9" as my deployment server
under project properties->Run.
Comment 5 Sherold Dev 2006-02-02 09:51:34 UTC 
tm -> 5.5
Comment 6 seancwall 2006-02-02 22:06:28 UTC 
CORRECTION - Problem was occurring with NB 5.0 RC2 - the release version of NB
5.0 doesn't seem to have this problem.
