Hello,

 

I am trying to either generate the javadoc/html for Forge's source code, or to locate it online somewhere.  I found a site once, but can no longer find it.  For some reason I get over 100 compiler errors when trying to build the Forge project, or even javadoc.

 

Please advise, it's very tricky to port mods without it!

 

Thanks,

Chris

Here is some more information about my development environment:

 

$ gradle -version

 

------------------------------------------------------------

Gradle 4.9

------------------------------------------------------------

 

Build time:   2018-07-16 08:14:03 UTC

Revision:     efcf8c1cf533b03c70f394f270f46a174c738efc

 

Kotlin DSL:   0.18.4

Kotlin:       1.2.41

Groovy:       2.4.12

Ant:          Apache Ant(TM) version 1.9.11 compiled on March 23 2018

JVM:          1.8.0_201 (Oracle Corporation 25.201-b09)

OS:           Mac OS X 10.14.5 x86_64

 

A large majority of the errors appear the be related to "cannot find symbol" "ResourceLocation" (e.g. net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocation)

 

  symbol:   class ResourceLocation

  location: class RegistryBuilder<T>

  where T is a type-variable:

    T extends IForgeRegistryEntry<T> declared in class RegistryBuilder

  where T is a type-variable:

    T extends Object declared in class RegistryDelegate

How did do your setup of the mdk?

Sorry, I am not even sure what MDK is?  I am assuming Mod Development Kit?  All I have done is downloaded the https://github.com/MinecraftForge/MinecraftForge.git source code and tried to compile with Java 8u201 and Gradle 4.9.  This seemed to work fine for several other mods (e.g. JEI, etc.)
