Bad external link in scaladoc #12582

Closed som-snytt closed 2 years ago

som-snytt commented 2 years ago

Reproduction steps

The doc for TrieMap says look here for details.

Problem

The external link is 404. Probably scaladoc should be able to verify all external links. Probably scaladoc 3 needs the same feature.

Hmmm. For me the link on the TrieMap page is http://lampwww.epfl.ch/~prokopec/ctries-snapshot.pdf (note http not https), which resolves just fine. Is your browser converting the link to https?

Thanks for the heads up. I started from https://scala-lang.org/. (And never looked back.)

Normally if there is no https server Firefox will reluctantly ask if I wish to proceed with http.

even Firefox viewsource doesn't just give me plain text when cut/paste.
