No sticky for source libraries?

[Grok]

I noticed this forum has no list of source code libraries in its sticky.  Does everyone pretty much use sourceforge for their java code hunting?  Post your list of java source sites and I'll see if we can get it stickied.

Really what else do you need?

I've never written anything big enough to actually require a library in Java, but so far I've written all my code myself, or found a class in the javadocs (Hdx's post).

Yeah, Joe, I don't think that you're really on par with Grok (who is a professional programmer).  If the JDK was the only thing anyone would need, commercial Java programs would be 10 lines long.

I was pretty sure someone would say that, hence "I've never written anything big enough to require use of a library". =p

This thread is not about what I need.  I thought it would be nice for people who visit here to have a resources sticky.  But thanks for the attitude.

By the way, I see you are linking to the javadocs.  Are you aware of a download link for the javadocs for 1.5.0?  Spent the better part of an hour following links at java.sun.com, including nearly every download, to locate the downloadable /docs with no success.

Probably its a big honking icon saying "Download Javadocs Now" and that's why I missed it.

FOUND IT:  http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp#docs

Hah.  I was going to say, you can probably build them yourself.  Last time I looked, Java's source code was available.

OK, follow through on that.  If you're going to share knowledge, then share knowledge.  Java's source code is available, now list the steps required for someone to build the JavaDocs from the source code.  I'd bet that's something an occasional forum visitor is wanting to do.
