I don't have a full answer, but you can at least link to the "latest" 
released version of a class like this:
http://help.eclipse.org/topic//org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/api/org/eclipse/core/runtime/ListenerList.html

Note that "indigo/topic/" has been replaced by "topic//" with a double 
slash.

Here are some bugs about this topic:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/283856
https://bugs.eclipse.org/351037
https://bugs.eclipse.org/371550


If your doc plug-in will end up in the same infocenter as the link target, 
then the recommended way is to use PLUGINS_ROOT in the href, see
http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/guide/ua_help_content_files.htm

HTH,
Markus

Subject:
[cross-project-issues-dev] Linking to platform javadocs



Hi all,

I am currently struggling with how to properly link the javadocs of our 
plug-ins (org.eclipse.draw2d.doc.isv and org.eclipse.gef.doc.isv) agains 
those of the platform (i.e. org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv) and I thought I 
could find help here.

Currently, we have a javadoc.options file within each of our doc.isv 
plug-ins, which contain link statements of the form:

-link http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/
-link 
http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/api/

That seems to work in principle, but of course has the disadvantage that 
it links our javadocs to an outdated platform javadoc (namely that of the 
last release). I would rather like to link it to the current platform 
documentation instead, i.e. 4.2 for the Juno. Unfortunately no Juno help 
pages seem to be online yet.

When linking from org.eclipse.gef.doc.isv to org.eclipse.draw2d.doc.isv, I 
further have the problem that there is no Javadoc for Draw2d contained on 
help.eclipse.org/indigo currently, so I may not even link to an outdated 
version (we had problems in producing javadoc with the old build system, 
so javadoc was not published properly for the indigo releases) and will 
have to wait for the help.eclipse.org/juno being first populated.

How is that usually handled? Is the help.eclipse.org/Juno populated 
initially before the final release? Is there a way to provide a stable URL 
to point to the eclipse help of the latest release in such cases?

Cheers,
Alexander
