Hi all,

I have installed the new version of Eclipse...and when I create a new
Visual Class...everything is fine except that when I drag a component
like a Button or RadioButton..it is not shown on the screen untill I
close the class and reopen it again..it is then shown on the
canvas...so, what is the problem??

I have another question..Where shall I place the Java Documentation so
that when I use a function in my program I can see its description??

Any help is appreciated in advance..

Best regards,
Rashrashetta

I don't know if the rest of Usenet agrees with this, but usually when I
have 2 different questions, I'll make them 2 different posts. (This rule can
be generalized for N different questions)

Not sure what you mean by this. Does JavaDoc solve your problem? If not,
does JavaHelp solve your problem? If not, then why not?

Don't know. Maybe there's a bug in the Visual Editor, or maybe you are
mixing Swing components with AWT components (are you sure you shouldn't
use JButton/JRadioButton instead of Button/RadioButton?).

The location doesn't really matter. When I generate javadoc of my own
programs or libraries (using File -> Export -> Javadoc) I usually put it
in a subdirectory 'doc' of my project directory.

In the project properties you can add source and javadoc locations of
the libraries the project is using. Select project, then File ->
Properties -> Java Build Path -> Libraries -> JRE System Library (for
example) -> rt.jar -> Javadoc location -> Edit; and also ... -> rt.jar
-> Source attachment -> Edit

To attach the Javadoc of the project itself, use File -> Properties ->
Javadoc location -> Browse.
