Hi there,
I'm almost done finishing up the first beta release of my (study) project and
so the time was come to dive more deeper into commenting. On a side note I have
to say considering Javadoc very appealing.
Alas, after having made the (obvious?) mistake of commenting my package and
discovering that this didn't work I read up on package-info.java and
package.html for commenting the whole package. Unfortunatly I couldn't make
Netbeans accept package-info.java so I resorted to the html file. While this
works excellent when it comes to Javadoc it also results in the html file being
included in my final jar distribution file. While this isn't a major problem I
don't consider it good practice...
So now I'm wondering if there is cleaner way in Netbeans to provide a Javadoc
comment for the entire package. Have I overlooked the obvious with
'package-info.java' or is there another option I could use ?
I was considering to see if I could make it ignore the package.html file when
building but I haven't come that far yet.
Thanks in advance for your comments.

Well, that was simple but naturally I'm still wondering about the package-info
which is picked up as a illegal class. Anyway; project properties -> packaging
-> 'Exclude from JAR file'. In my case you enter '**/package.html' and all is
well (no '').
