I'm running Eclispe 2022-03 with Java 17.0.2 and try to export JAutoDoc preferences (Export All) which is not working. The following exception is thrown:

Re: Export of preferences not working (Java 17, Eclipse 2022-03)

Submitted by Martin Kesting on Mon, 2022-03-21 18:56

It’s because Java 17 denies all illegal access operations by default. Adding the following line to the end of eclipse.ini should solve the problem:

--add-opens=java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED

Great integration of JAutodoc with Eclipse! I'm testing 2019-03 M2 right now, and unfortunately, the plugin isn't available in the Marketplace.

... and thanks for reporting. New Eclipse versions have to be explicitly enabled for the plugin in the Marketplace. I wasn’t aware of that.

Error in installing JAutoDoc in Photon

Submitted by Ashok Ram on Wed, 2018-08-15 03:37

Hi,

Please check I am getting this below error message while intalling the JAutoDoc

An error occurred while installing the items
session context was:(profile=_Users_ashokram_Ashok_Applications_Eclipse.app_Contents_Eclipse, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Install, operand=null --> [R]net.sf.jautodoc 1.14.0, action=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.touchpoint.eclipse.actions.InstallBundleAction).

Re: Error in installing JAutoDoc in Photon

Submitted by Martin Kesting on Thu, 2018-08-16 15:56

Sorry, but this doesn't seems to be a problem of JAutodoc. Looks like a general problem of your Eclipse installation: "Could not acquire the framework manipulator service". Are you able to install other plugins?

A useful deflector for agressive checkstyle rules

Submitted by Ed Randall on Mon, 2016-12-12 12:01

A useful tool, in so far as it goes.
In my experience this tool is used to save time with satisfying some corresponding Checkstyle rules.
Beware that mindlessly generating Javadoc comments on otherwise documented classes adds little, if any, value. Developers need to learn to actually write some *meaningful* comments in the generated fields, but very few do so.

A link from the marketplace description above, into the actual JAutodoc site jautodoc.sourceforge.net would not go amiss.

Normally it works fine with

Submitted by Martin Kesting on Wed, 2015-05-20 17:53

Normally it works fine with Luna. Please check the Error Log View and "Help->Installation Details".
It would be easier, when you reply by mail. My address is on the JAutodoc website.

Really useful

Submitted by René Van Buuren on Sun, 2014-01-26 08:03

This plugin does what it says it will and has already saved me a bunch of time. I recommend it.
