NAME

       dh_javadoc - generate javadoc documentation and install in package directory

SYNOPSIS

       dh_javadoc [debhelper options] [-p<package>] [--sourcedir source path] [Java packages]

DESCRIPTION

       dh_javadoc is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating HTML Java documentation and
       installing it in package directories. This should be done in the documentaion package of all Java
       libraries. Normal Java programs should not be supplied with javadoc documentation (neither in their main
       package or in a separate documentation package)

       Any package specified as parameters will be installed into the first package dh_javadoc is told to act
       on. Use of the standard debhelper -p option is highly recommended.

       A file named debian/package.javadoc may list additional packages to have documentation generated. These
       should be separated by new lines.

       When the Java policy is modified, this script will also install links to the documentation in a common
       place so that javadoc pages may be interlinked; and also provide a substitution variable for
       documentation package dependencies.

       Javadoc generation is done using gjdoc, currently the only free javadoc implementation. When new features
       are added to this (such as overview files), this script will be modified accordingly.

OPTIONS

       --sourcedir source path
           Specify the source path in which to look for Java source files.

       Java packages
           Names of Java packages to be documented.

TODO

       +   Check parameters more carefully.

       +   Add substvar for documentation dependencies

       +   Don't put the 'common' directory in all packages - refer to one in /usr/share/gjdoc & insist on
           creating that dependency

       +   Other items depend on gjdoc improvements:

           -       Add package listings to common directory

           -       Generate dependency substvar based on additional doc packages used.
