Can anybody show me how to generate Javadoc from command line?
My project contains the package com.test
and I want to put the generated documentation in files located in a specific folder like this: C:/javadoc/test
.

You can refer the javadoc 8 documentation
I think what you are looking at is something like
javadoc -d C:/javadoc/test com.test
Oracle provides some simple examples:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/tools/windows/javadoc.html#CHDJBGFC
Assuming you are in ~/ and the java source tree is in ./saxon_source/net and you want to recurse through the whole source tree net is both a directory and the top package name.
mkdir saxon_docs
javadoc -d saxon_docs -sourcepath saxon_source -subpackages net
Let's say you have the following directory structure where you want to generate javadocs on file1.java
and file2.java
(package com.test), with the javadocs being placed in C:\javadoc\test
:
C:\
|
+--javadoc\
| |
| +--test\
|
+--projects\
|
+--com\
|
+--test\
|
+--file1.java
+--file2.java
In the command terminal, navigate to the root of your package: C:\projects
. If you just want to generate the standard javadocs on all the java files inside the project, run the following command (for multiple packages, separate the package names by spaces):
C:\projects> javadoc -d [path to javadoc destination directory] [package name]
C:\projects> javadoc -d C:\javadoc\test com.test
If you want to run javadocs from elsewhere, you'll need to specify the sourcepath. For example, if you were to run javadocs in in C:\
, you would modify the command as such:
C:\> javadoc -d [path to javadoc destination directory] -sourcepath [path to package directory] [package name]
C:\> javadoc -d C:\javadoc\test -sourcepath C:\projects com.test
If you want to run javadocs on only selected .java files, then add the source filenames separated by spaces (you can use an asterisk (*) for a wildcard). Make sure to include the path to the files:
C:\> javadoc -d [path to javadoc destination directory] [source filenames]
C:\> javadoc -d C:\javadoc\test C:\projects\com\test\file1.java
More information/scenarios can be found here.
For example if I had an application source code structure that looked like this:
Then I would do:
javadoc -d "C:\docs" -sourcepath "C:\b2b" -subpackages com
And that should create javadocs for source code in the com package, and all subpackages (recursively), found inside the "C:\b2b" directory.
its simple go to the folder where your all java code is saved say E:/javaFolder and then javadoc *.java
example
E:\javaFolder> javadoc *.java

I believe this will surely help you.
javadoc -d C:/javadoc/test com.mypackage
D:>javadoc *.java
if you want to create dock file of lang package then path should be same where your lang package is currently for example I created a folder name javaapi and unzip src zip file. then use command as bellow
C:\Users\Techsupport1\Desktop\javaapi\java\lang> javadoc *.java
