About this app

This is a javadoc reference for JDK7.

This app is designed to be quicker to use for developers.

How to use:

Enter just class name : e.g. String either select from dropdown menu OR tap search button

OR

enter at least first 3 chars of a class and select from drop down menu.

To browse a package:
enter package name followed by dot(.): e.g. lang. select class of choice from the dropdown

To make a new search, just tap on the search text menu.

If you find a bug, please put it in the review, I will try to get that fixed probably within a week or so :)

Ratings and reviews

Very useful application for me. Thanks developers.

It's great that all the documentation is included in the app - including the under-used sections of Java, such as the Instrumentation API. The app could be improved by having references be navigable, so we don't need to search for something when the documentation mentions it. Even still, the app is very useful. As an additional idea, while outside of the current scope of the app, it would be nice if we could optionally look at the code involved, even if it's just snagged from an open source project.

This could be very useful, but the method and property references aren't there and topics don't interlink. There are some other formatting issues as well but they are minor. since the member reference is missing I still have to go to oracle's site. I would also want a way to browse the class reference.
