Question

I want my javadoc to reference a dev manual that is on my intranet. I would like to know how to do this: I tried using see {@link http://json.org} but this just produced http://json.org and not a hypertext link. Let’s say I wanted to point to some wiki page inside the javadoc. How can I do this? I am just trying to have link to external website. So I want something like Example as hypertext link and it points to a full URL to website.

Answer 1

{@link} and {@linkplain} are specifically used to link to other javadoc.

To link to a plain web page you can simply use an HTML link:

* @see <a href="http://json.org/">The JSON site</a>
