I'm new to Filenet and I was asked to develop an event action handler in Java.
I'm trying to define a Javadoc for the jace.jar library, but with no success.
Does anybody know what's the URL for this Javadoc? (I need it for com.filenet.api package)

A bit late for an answer but you could link your Jace.jar Javadoc location to http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/api/content/SSNW2F_5.2.0/com.ibm.p8.ce.dev.java.doc

This link points to version 5.2.0, you would need to change it according to your installed version.

Alternatively, you could download the appropriate javadoc from ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/data/cm/filenet/docs/p8doc/52x/ and link it to Jace.jar

Hope this helps

  • The first link does not work currently: "The topic was not found. The link might not be correct, or the topic does not exist. Check that the URL is correct and try again." – ﾤ ﾡ Jul 13 '14 at 18:51

    The link would not work through a normal browser because it is missing the /index.html at the end. It works perfectly for me when used as a Javadoc location path though. – user3282942 Jul 20 '14 at 14:43
  • Thanks very much. It worked for me as a Javadoc location path. – user1579191 Nov 09 '15 at 12:08

I don't think there is a public URL that provides pure Javadoc for CE API. Online FileNet P8 Information Center adds extra framing that probably makes it impossible to use Javadoc from within IDE.

You can grab Javadoc JAR from the deployed P8 Information Center. This is p8docs.war/WEB-INF/eclipse/plugins/com.ibm.p8.ce.dev.ce.doc_5.1.0.jar.

  • Thanks, but we don't have the information center installed, and I can't install it now. Any other ideas of how I can get this jar? – user1579191 Feb 20 '14 at 05:52

I'm working on a project using P8 CE 5.2.1 and needed to add Javadocs under eclipse to jace.jar.

The Javadoc URL simply doesn't work and in eclipse Error Log you can read:

eclipse.buildId=4.5.2.M20160212-1500 java.version=1.8.0_92 java.vendor=Oracle Corporation BootLoader constants: OS=win32, ARCH=x86_64, WS=win32, NL=en_US Framework arguments: -product org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product Command-line arguments: -os win32 -ws win32 -arch x86_64 -product org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product

org.eclipse.jdt.core Error Tue Jan 17 15:58:28 CET 2017 Unknown javadoc format for UserContext {key=Lcom/filenet/api/util/UserContext;} [in UserContext.class [in com.filenet.api.util [in D:\Program Files\apache-maven-3.3.1.m2\repository\com\ibm\ecm\filenet\jace\5.2.1\jace-5.2.1.jar]]]

So I followed @user3282942 suggestion adding a few missing and a little more precise steps:

  1. go to ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/data/cm/filenet/docs/p8doc/52x/
  2. don't download latest (as far as I'm writing) p8docs521_refresh_03_31_2016.zip file since it's only a documentation refresh but p8docs521_refresh_10_07_2015.zip file
  3. unzip the p8docs521_refresh_10_07_2015.zip file and give p8docs521_refresh_10_07_2015\com.ibm.p8.ce.dev.java.doc_5.2.1.jar file as the Javadoc's archive path in Eclipse Javadoc Location menu.

Now you can have Javadocs for Content Engine Java API attached to jace.jar
