Apache NetBeans version
Apache NetBeans 25 release candidate
What happened
It is not a netbeans bug perse, but rather annoying.
When you lookup javadoc for say the netbeans-25 apis, following the links to some JDK apis, such as say ClassTree, you land in a Java SE 6 version of the com.sun javadoc.
Language / Project Type / NetBeans Component
javadoc
How to reproduce
look up WorkingCopy in java/java.source.base and click on e.g. Tree.
This will land you in https://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/jdk/api/javac/tree/com/sun/source/tree/Tree.html?is-external=true
where https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/17/docs/api/jdk.compiler/com/sun/source/tree/Tree.html would be more appropriate, since 17 is the min version for building netbeans >= 24.
Did this work correctly in an earlier version?
No / Don't know
Operating System
any, the problem lies on the server or deployment side
JDK
jdk 17
Apache NetBeans packaging
Other
Anything else
it is just an annoyance, and probably only a setting in one of the ant scripts or properties.
Other modules link to more up to date javadoc sites (such as java 8).
Are you willing to submit a pull request?
