Problem is, I am developing in Solaris but I don't have

neither admin rights nor an admin to build and install the

tool for me (don't ask, it is a sad story).

I also have access to a Windows box. If you can't make

available the info files, how about binaries for either a

Windows or Solaris version of the info generator?

Or at least instructions on how to build it in Windows?



Thanks,

  Nascif

Because of the terms of SCSL license under which the Java

JDK source (and hence it's Javadoc comments) are distributed

we cannot do this, otherwise we risk tainting the free

version of the JDK we are attempting to implement, i.e.

"Classpath".  The only way you can do this is to download

TexiDoclet and do it yourself, or find somebody else who has

already converted the .info files.  



However, we *can* distribute the docs for the Classpath API

(since it is a cleanroom implementation).   Currently we

don't have .info files generated, however.
