I get this error while compiling a lib.

Where to put the BaDoclet class files?

Thanks in advance.

the file is already there. It must be in the place where the SLC is. You should use JAVA 8 or JAVA 11 though. Your JAVA 14 is maybe the problem.

Hi DonManfred :)
Thanks for your quick answer.

Yes, I see that the BADoclet class files are already included in the ZIP file and they are already extracted in the same folder where the lib compiler is also present.

I guess, you are right: The java version 14 could be really the problem here.

I switch the version to 11 and I will give feedback asap.

Hi DonManfred! :)

BINGO!!! The java version - now version 11 - was the reason for the classnotfound exception.

B4X:
Starting step: Compiling Java code.
javac 11.0.2

*** Don't forget to refresh the libraries list in the IDE (right click and choose Refresh) ***

Thanks a lot.

You should use Java 8 with SLC/BADoclet. Even Java 11 can cause problems with the XML.
