      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      java version "1.4.1-beta"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1-beta-b14)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1-beta-b14, mixed mode)

      DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      Missing "Since 1.2" tags on many parts of the documentation. Someone should go through this and check all the methods/fields that were added since 1.2.

      Example:

      HttpURLConnection.getErrorStream() was since 1.2, but the docs don't say so.


      Please see:

      http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/api/java.net.HttpURLConnection.html

      http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/docs/api/java/net/HttpURLConnection.html#getErrorStream()

      http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/java/net/HttpURLConnection.html#getErrorStream()


      Not having this information makes development a bit more difficult on a 1.1 embedded system since each method must be cross checked with the 1.1 docs.

      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.
