[udig-devel] Re: GeoTools API Javadoc

[Jesse Eichar]

Yes it is 2.2.x.  In fact it is 2.2.1-SNAPSHOT.  Although the API  
should be the same as 2.2.0.  I'm not sure where the Javadocs for  
geotools are but the source code can be downloaded from the 2.2.0  
release and you can use that for source lookup and the javadoc view  
in eclipse.  Admittedly you won't have linking javadocs but I have  
found it to be sufficient for my purposes.

We have 2 initiative going right now that should help.
1.  The script I am using to generate javadocs for uDig will be  
updated to provide links to the geotools javadocs as well as cross  
plugin javadocs (which it doesn't have right now).
2.  Add the Geotools source files to the uDig SDK.

The time line is a little vague though because we are pretty busy at  
the moment.
