Description

Java2Html converts Java (and other) source code (complete files or snippets) to HTML, RTF, TeX and XHTML with syntax highlighting.

This open source Java project consists of an extendible library along with a Java application, a Java applet and many plugins in order to integrate the library into other programs.

Example Output

/**
 * This is about <code>ClassName</code>.
 {@link com.yourCompany.aPackage.SuperClass}
 @author author
 */
public class ClassName extends SuperClass {
  /* This comment may span multiple lines. */
  private int integer = 0;
  public final static char character = 'A';
  // This comment may span only this line
  private String string = "zero";
}

Features

  • Open Source under the GPL or CPL1.0 license (whatever of both fits your needs).
  • Does not depend on a strict grammar: Even parses incorrect Java code (e.g. code snippets) and other text files.
  • Can easily be extended or integrated into other projects (e.g. Wikis).
  • Conversion output can be configured (Color, style,...) - have a look at various style examples.
  • Available as class library, Applet, Ant task, JSPWiki Plugin, Plugin for the Eclipse IDE and others.

Limitations

  • Does not use a strict grammar - so automatically generating hyperlinks for navigating source files is not possible.
