can TextPad run javadoc without installing other program

[tian]

I found TextPad is a very good for java, but I cannot run javadoc in TextPad. I found a related AQ like the follwing

----------
How do you add javadoc.exe to the tools menue like javac.exe and java.exe?



Go to Configure --> Preferences. Choose "Tools", at the bottom, then "Add" Program. Surf to javadoc.exe (usually C:\jdk1.3\bin\javadoc.exe or something like that), and that's it.


-------------

My question is can TextPad run javadoc command without installing any other related programs like Java SDK? or the TextPad needs some progarm in addition toTextPad in order to run javadoc. I did not install any java compiler progarm except TextPad.

Please help me.

Thanks a lot!

I think Javadoc is a part of the Java SDK. So to get it you need to install Java. HTH

Thank you very much!

it is running, but I could not view the html file because .html is not a default extention, when I try to open the file, the error message says "cannot find the html file". Do you know how to make .html a default extention. My system is Windows ME.

Again, thanks a lot!

To associate TP with html files you goto Configure->Preferences->Document Classes->HTML
and make sure *.html is listed there, add it if needed.

To view or edit the html file right click on it and select TP or open with in Explorer.

You can take this one step further, not reccomended, by going to Configure->Preferences->
Associated Files and adding the .html file ending there. If you do that you can double click on
html files in Explorer and they will open up in TP instead of Internet Explorer.
