[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Solution: Where are the local SWT Javadoc stored

With Ben's help, I was able to locate the local copy of these. My mis-understanding was that I was looking for a directory, when what I should have been looking for was a jar file named: eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv_3.3.1.r331_v20070913.jar

By default, when SWT-related errors were occuring, I was getting the classic "No Javadocs or Source Found" message.

The trick is to right-click on the swt.jar file that you are using for development, and set its "Properties->Javadoc Location".

I used the option "Javadoc in Archive" to point to the above directory and file. Then, you need to set the location in the archive file to be "reference/api".
