Hi Michael, Thanks for your reply. I started again, following your instructions, i even saw the .html files on my command prompt. I opened up the hellow world program and noticed that in my Maven project node i saw the gt2-api jar file which was nice. However, when i add the . operator to show the list of functions, it still does not show the description of functions which i am very puzzled?? I even high lighted the actual function and clicked on Show Javadoc which did not even display. Clearly, there is something i have missed. Do i need to place this also in the Java Plateform Manager? or Library Manager?
