      The doclet API makes possible a new class of
      tools and it would be easier and cleaner if there
      was a published way of invoking the javadoc program
      from within a java program (without having to exec
      it, yuck.) I'm guessing, based on looking at the
      120b2 classes.zip that it's probably just a
      question of invoking

       sun.tools.javadoc.Main.main(...)

      But if you guys published that as one line of the
      doclet API documentation it would make using it
      complete righteous as opposed to slightly kludgy.
