This was asked before but either not answered, or the answers don't
work, so, the challenge being out there, I did some digging and I
thought I should share my success.
My goal was to be able to option-double-click on a class name, for
example, in Java source in XCode and be taken to the JavaDoc
documentation for that class (at least). I wanted this to work for
J2SE 1.4.2 and for WebObjects 5.3.
I had both sets of JavaDoc material loaded:
J2SE @ /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/\
Versions/1.4.2/Resources/Documentation/Reference/doc/api/
WO53 @ /Developer/ADC\ Reference\ Library/referencelibrary/\
WebObjects/API/
and via a symlink, the same Java documentation referenced at
J2SE @ /Developer/ADC\ Reference\ Library/documentation/\
Java/Reference/1.4.2/Reference/doc/api/
Eeverything that was needed was available but not being found.
I looked at the XCode 1.5 release notes where I remembered a note
about how to reindex the documentation, and found the pbhelpindexer
command. That command's help text explains enough to give me
confidence to execute it:
___________________________________
sudo pbhelpindexer -d
-- Debugging on...
...debugging messages will be logged to /tmp/pbhelpindexer.debug
Searching /Developer/ADC Reference Library/indexes for *.pbHelpIndexerList
/Developer/Tools/pbhelpindexer: Indexing reference documentation in
these locations:
/Developer/ADC Reference Library
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/Resources/
Indexing finished without errors.

and, success [tho' nothing logged to /tmp/pbhelpindexer.debug] ...
