I20091103-0941.

The Javadoc of org.eclipse.jdt.core.IClasspathAttribute.JAVADOC_LOCATION_ATTRIBUTE_NAME should mention what type the corresponding value has to have (String representation of an URL in this case).

Olivier, it should be "an URL" instead of "a URL".

> Olivier, it should be "an URL" instead of "a URL".
According to what I know about the English grammar, as soon as the "sound" of the 'uU' is a consonant sound, no 'n' is required.

I think it is "a university" or "a unicorn". This is the same 'u' sound as in "url".

Wikipedia seems to agree with this.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Resource_Locator

So I would leave it as is.

Sorry, you are right, it is pronounced as yü är el and hence it's "a URL".
