Description Dani Megert

3.6 RC2.

org.eclipse.ui.navigator.INavigatorContentService methods refer to Javadoc/HTML inside the same class using a relative links, e.g.:
<a href="#visible">above</a>

Thos relative links are broken once the methods are generated by Javadoc into the alphabetical index.

I would argue that this is a bug of the javadoc tool: it should rewrite relative URLs when moving files around. However, I doubt this will be fixed soon, so changing our Javadoc might be the best path to follow.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
