Java Source Cross-Reference
Is there a source cross-reference tool in Java out there that I
can use as part of an Ant build? The only one I now if is
Maven's tool that comes with Jetty.

Nice try. ;)
Just curious. I'm at 1.4 and it seemed to work fine for that. :)

I don't think so (actually I've not tried, but I don't remember anyone
implementing it), but with the source available you are free to add it

If you want the real story on Doxygen and its features and shortcomings,
you might want to visit the forum. doxygen-users@lists.sourceforge.net
I had no trouble installing it on Windows. I integrated it into Eclipse
with the eclox plug-in to give me a platform independent interface.
I am sure that someone has resolved the cross platform issues with Ant.
I suppose you have to guage how many platforms you need to actually
support - there are getting to be fewer and fewer as time goes by.
I have never seen the code source hyperlinked together. Sounds like a
useful feature if your classes are large and naming conventions not very
easy to follow.
I am using it with ActionScript and it works pretty well but would
benefit from a pre-processor to rearrange some of the Actionscript
peculiarities.
I like the flexibility of JavaDoc tagging.
Good luck with your search.

Maybe (although I've found doxygen to be non-trivial to configure when
I tried it on a C++ project), but it's main drawback is that it's
native code instead of Java, so doesn't integrate to a cross-platform
Ant-based build env like mine as easily.
Doxygen's a good tool, but would not be my first choice just for Java
code convertion to HTML. Plus I'm not sure it gives you
cross-referenced HTML, where each type used in the code is linked to
its definition. --DD

Doesn't Doxygen do the same thing plus give you class diagrams all in
HTML or other formats?
All with active deveopment and an active forum.

Does Maven JXR do 1.5?

With no changes in 2 years and no source code, I'm not sure its the
best choice - for example if you wanted to add any JDK 5 syntax.

We only just separated it from a Maven plugin.

Thank you.
Last time I needed a cross-referencer, that's what I did.
Wondering if there were alternatives that were Ant tasks
already, maybe therew was project focused on on the task of
cross-referencing, there's a lot you could do with it.
Again, thank you. I'll go find that Ant task I wrote and use it.

Are you looking for capabilities other than what the Maven xref (JXR)
provides, or the ability to use it outside of Maven? The library is
now separate and could trivially be wrapped in an Ant task.
