Class Extern


  • @Deprecated
    public class Extern
    extends Object
    Deprecated.
    Process and manage "-link" and "-linkoffline" to external packages. The options "-link" and "-linkoffline" both depend on the fact that Javadoc now generates "package-list"(lists all the packages which are getting documented) file in the current or the destination directory, while generating the documentation.

    This is NOT part of any supported API. If you write code that depends on this, you do so at your own risk. This code and its internal interfaces are subject to change or deletion without notice.
