NAME

       doctorj - Javadoc analyzer and spell-checker

SYNOPSIS

       doctorj [--emacs] [--warning=LEVEL] [--tabwidth=NUM]
               [--dictionaries=LIST] [--verbose] {FILE...}

DESCRIPTION

       doctorj  is  an  application  to  analyze Javadoc comments against Java
       code, verifying its integrity and format. It also spell-checks  Javadoc
       comments.

OPTIONS

       --emacs
              Whether to list violations in Emacs form, i.e., a single line of
              the form:

              8:48:9:4: An error occurred on this line.

              By default, violations are displayed in ‘‘long  form’’,  showing
              the context.

       --warning=LEVEL
              Sets  the  warning  level,  which by default is -1, meaning that
              only errors are reported.  A  warning  level  of  0  means  that
              Javadoc  for  public  or  abstract  items  (classes, interfaces,
              methods, constructors, and fields) will be  checked.  A  warning
              level of 1 will result in the addition of checking of protected-
              access items; 2 is for package-access items, and  3  will  check
              all items.

       --tabwidth=NUM
              Sets  the  number  of  spaces to use for alignment with tabs. By
              default, this value is 4.

       --dictionaries=LIST
              Sets the dictionaries (word lists) to  use  for  spell-checking.
              LIST  is  a  comma-delimited  string  of  paths to the word list
              files.   By   default,   doctorj   uses   the   word   list   at
              /usr/share/doctorj/words.LOCALE, where LOCALE is of the standard
              Java  form.  doctorj  is  distributed  with  three  word  lists:
              words.en_CA  (Canadian  English),  words.en_UK  (United  Kingdom
              English), and words.en_US (United States English).

       --verbose
              Produces debugging output. Note that this  signficantly  impedes
              performance.

       FILE   Specifies  the  files  to  check. If the argument specified is a
              directory, all files ending in ‘‘.java’’  under  that  directory
              will be analyzed.

EXAMPLES

       To check a single file:

              % doctorj String.java

       To check multiple files:

              % doctorj String.java StringBuffer.java Object.java

       To check all files below a directory:

              % doctorj /proj/app/src

       To run at the maximum warning level:

              % doctorj --warning=4 .

       To specify a different dictionary:

              % doctorj --dictionaries=/usr/share/dict/words .

CONFIGURATION

       $HOME/.doctorjrc

       The run-control file, of the form:

              emacs: true
              warning: 4
              tabwidth: 8
              dictionaries: /usr/share/dict/words,/home/me/etc/terms
              verbose: false

       Dictionary (word list) files contain one word per line, for example:

              adaxial
              cepaceous
              sabaton
              vespiaries
