package.html location & jar file size

[Manish Kumar]

Hi,
I'm going to pack my assignment in the Jar file but I'm confused about the location of 'package.html' files.
Should I place them in the source directories?
And what should be the final size of jar file? Is there any limitation?

thanks & regards,
Manish Kumar

Yes, your package.html files go in your source tree, and javadoc will see them there and incorporate them into your javadoc files. I don't think there's a limit on the file size. I would imagine 1-2 MB would be the most you would need if you used many many screenshots in your documentation. Mine was 691 KB, FYI.

Thanks Pete,
and what about the 'resource' directory? my resource directory contains only gif & html. So should I also place them in the source tree or only with client.jar & server.jar will be sufficient?

regards,
Manish

I have the same confusion as whether the package.html shoud go with the source files, SUN itself does not include any these files in its jdk sources. well if i dont include them, i am afraid of being accused of lack of integrity, for
you cant recreate the documentation without them.
How do you think, Mark Spritzler ?
