I'm not sure exactly what you mean by that.  In order to create javadocs
you definitely need the .java sources.  In the FreeBSD port (that I maintain)
we just run:

            ${JAVADOC} -quiet -breakiterator      \
                -d ${JAVADOCDIR} -package         \
                -classpath  ${JDCLASSPATH}        \
                 com.mysql.jdbc org.gjt.mm.mysql)
    
Where the variables evaluate to the following on my machine:

% make -V JAVADOC -V JAVADOCDIR -V JDCLASSPATH 
/usr/local/jdk1.6.0/bin/javadoc
/usr/ports/databases/mysql-connector-java/work/mysql-connector-java-5.1.7/javadoc
/usr/ports/databases/mysql-connector-java/work/mysql-connector-java-5.1.7/src:/usr/ports/databases/mysql-connector-java/work/mysql-connector-java-5.1.7/src/lib/jdbc2_0-stdext.jar:/usr/ports/databases/mysql-connector-java/work/mysql-connector-java-5.1.7/src/lib/jta-spec1_0_1.jar:

If you want the precompiled Javadocs then you can download the
mysql-connector-java package from:

    ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/packages/All/mysql-connector-java-5.1.7.tbz

The format is just a bzip2 compressed tar which you should be able to
extract on anything Unixoid without to much difficulty.  Javadocs are
under: share/doc/mysql-connector-java/javadoc within the package.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
