A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When we run the javadoc utility released with the Java2 SDK
version 1.4, the links to our classes are being shown as
text entries instead of a link to another Javadoc document
which contains information on the class, e.g.

Return type                  | Method name                      

com.aepona.pcp.HeartBeatBean | enableHeartBeat(int duration)    
                                  This method ....
com.aepona.pcp.HeartBeatBean | getHeartBeatBean()
                                  This method ....
com.aepona.pcp.HeartBeatMgr  | getHeartBeatMgmtBean()
                                  This method
....                 String  | toString()
                                  Returns a string rep ....

Javadocs for com.aepona.pcp.HeartBeatBean and
com.aepona.pcp.HeartBeatMgr were generated during the run of
the Javadoc utility, but links to them were not present.

The files with the missing links are included in both the
-sourcepath and the -classpath so it is not a matter that
the tool can not find them.  Also, this only seemed to start
to occur when we switched to Java version 1.4.  We used to
use Java version "1.3.1_01" and the javadoc utility did not
exhibit this problem.

REGRESSION.  Last worked in version 1.3.1

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
The javadoc command we ran was as follows:

javadocCreate:
        $(JAVADOC1.4)         -sourcepath $(TEMP_PCP_SOURCE_DIR)         -classpath $(CORBA_CLASSPATH_STUFF)         -public -version -use -d $(PCP_EXTERNAL_HTML)         -link http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api         -windowtitle "AePONA Javadoc for Causeway"         -doctitle "<h1>AePONA  Javadoc for Causeway</h1>         $(JAVADOC_GROUPS_AND_PACKAGES)         `cat $(TEMP_PCP_SOURCE_DIR)/workfile2`

$(TEMP_PCP_SOURCE_DIR) is the location were our source code
was located and contained source code including javadoc
comments for both com.aepona.pcp.HeartBeatBean and
com.aepona.pcp.HeartBeatMgr.

$(CORBA_CLASSPATH_STUFF) contained all the required
classpaths for our project.

$(JAVADOC_GROUPS_AND_PACKAGES) contained a list of packages
we wanted to javadoc.

$(TEMP_PCP_SOURCE_DIR)/workfile2 contained a list of our
source files we wanted to javadoc.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
What we got was:

com.aepona.pcp.HeartBeatBean | enableHeartBeat(int duration)
                                 This method ....
com.aepona.pcp.HeartBeatBean | getHeartBeatBean()
                                 This method ....
com.aepona.pcp.HeartBeatMgr  | getHeartBeatMgmtBean()
                                 This method
.... 
                     String  | toString()
                                  Returns a string rep ....

What we expected was:
               HeartBeatBean | enableHeartBeat(int duration)
                                 This method ....
               HeartBeatBean | getHeartBeatBean()
                                 This method ....
               HeartBeatMgr  | getHeartBeatMgmtBean()
                                 This method
.... 
                     String  | toString()
                                 Returns a string rep ....

Where HeartBeatBean and HeartBeatMgr were links to other
javadoc documentation representing these classes instead of
text describing in which package they were located.

This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
This is just an example of the source code for the above problem.  Everything in
out project compiles successfully.

    /**
     *  This method is invoked by the client application to request the
     *  Framework to begin heartbeat supervision of the client.
     *
     *@param  duration                   The duration in milliseconds between
     *      the heartbeats.
     *@exception  PcpTpGeneralException  If the Framework provider throws a
     *      TpGeneralException.
     *@exception  PcpTpFWException       If the Framework provider throws a
     *      TpFWException.
     *@exception  PcpInternalException   If an exception occurs within the PCP
     *      internals.
     *@exception  PlatformException      If a communication error occurs.
     */
    public HeartBeatBean enableHeartBeat(int duration) throws
	    PcpTpGeneralException,
            PcpTpFWException,
            PlatformException,
            PcpInternalException {
            
        ....
        ....
	return m_heartBeatBean;
    }
---------- END SOURCE ----------

Release Regression From : 1.3.1
The above release value was the last known release where this 
bug was known to work. Since then there has been a regression.
