Re: api docs

Would it be possible to allow us to download the api docs for off-line use?

The internet is a very fragile place and not even reasonably available in
some areas.  A little storm in the area can knock out access for days or
weeks.  It is not very user friendly to require somebody to be connected in
order to use the documentation.

Thank you for considering adding a download link for the api documentation.

Yes, that setting is one that is required by me, in addition to the ones
required by other needs.

An aside.

I know that in Eclipse with Maven, you can set options to download the
source code and the JavaDocs with any dependency you have for your project.
That way they are sitting there waiting for you to need them. It lets you
use them even in Airplane mode on a real airplane since they are local.

I don't think so. As Tilman already pointed out every more or less modern IDE 
should support to download the sources of dependencies. ANd if not you might 
consider to generate the api docs yourself. If this doesn't work for you, you 
might download the api docs from our homepage using some download manager like wget.

Don't know if this will be done... I think you're the first one to ask.

Why not just download the source code an attach it to the jar (if 
possible in your IDE)? This way you'd not only see the API 
documentation, but could also enter the source code when there's trouble.

Or you download the source and run


mvn javadoc:javadoc
