Java SE 6 API Documentation

The Java SE 6 API documentation has been updated to reflect the final release. The version 6 API is now used by default instead of version 5. To search the version 5 documentation, you can either prefix your searches with j2se5: or configure your own alias or group.

    I am trying to setup a java programming system using JCreator with Java 6 SE. I have downloaded and installed the Java 6 SE SDK and JCreator, but the SDK home directory needs a subdirectory “doc” containing the Java 6 SE API.

    But I can only find on-line references to it but no API download zip file that would let me put into this directory.

    I don’t want to always need to reference the on-line API to find what I want.

    Do I need to use the out-of-date J2SE5 API documentation or what can I do?

    It seems my problem relates to yours?

    Hi Rob,

    You can download the Java 6 SE docs from Sun. Go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp and click the Download button next to ‘Java SE 6 Documentation’.

    Yes, thanks Phil, I’ve got it now. Still very surprised Sun’s own search engine couldn’t find this for me.
