Compatibility with Java 8

Latest version of Class Viewer, as of July 3, 2014, is compatible with Java 8.

So has all functionality of prior versions including going to javadocs to the method.

If you find Class Viewer is not going to the method in javadocs please download latest version with that date or later.

Backward compatibility with earlier versions is maintained and Java version detected by the application based on what it finds in ClassViewerConfig.xml so if you wish to use Java 7 for instance it will still work, and use the older format, as long as you have that version in the config file.

For Java 8, Web section in config xml file should have: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/

Just change that '8' to '7' or lower and it will automatically use old format.
