Global Javadoc Viewer is a compact program that enables users to easily access and view multiple Javadoc sets concurrently.
Although the pre-alpha version of Global Javadoc Viewer is not configurable, it is still a useful tool that allows you to browse several Javadoc API sets. You can access popular javadoc sets such as j2se 1.5, j2ee 1.4, hibernate, and many others from the Internet. Moreover, if you're using a UNIX box, all javadoc sets installed to the /usr/share/javadoc/ directory can be browsed from the local filesystem, which is quite convenient.
Global Javadoc Viewer requires j2se 1.5+ to work correctly. Once you downloaded it, you can use it by running the command "java -jar globaldocs.jar."
The latest version of Global Javadoc Viewer has added some new features. Basic cookie and SSL support were added, which should improve the overall user experience. Furthermore, context searching in the frames was also added, making it easier to find specific information within different Javadoc sets.
Overall, Global Javadoc Viewer is an excellent software for anyone who needs to browse multiple Javadoc sets simultaneously. Although it's still in the pre-alpha version and lacks some advanced features, it is still an incredibly useful tool that can save you time and effort.
