Specifying the Default Javadoc Search Engine

The IDE provides support for searching documents other than the Javadoc index produced by the JDK 1.2/1.3 search engine. For example, you might plug in a search engine that enables you to search internationalized Javadoc documentation.

To specify the default search engine:

  1. Open the Project Settings window and select the Documentation node.
  2. Click the value of the Default Search Engine property and select a search engine from the combo box.

To customize a Javadoc search engine:

  1. In the Project Settings window, expand the Javadoc Search Engines node.
  2. Select a search engine and modify its properties to your preferred settings.
To specify a custom search engine, right-click the Javadoc Search Engines node and choose New service type. A node for the search engine is added to the Project Settings window. Select the node and modify its properties to your preferred values.
