ESRI should spend more time improving documentation for both the ADF .NET and ADF Java API. It is one of the worst documented commercial API's pushed on to users. Perhaps learn from Sun's java API docs? ArcObjects API is nice.

While we have slowly improved our ADF documentation over the last few releases, we recognize there are still areas we need to work on. We would greatly appreciate any feedback you could provide us (ResourceCtrs_Feedback@esri.com). Please include more details on the specific packages, objects, methods, properties, etc … you are working with that need improvement. Thanks, EDN Team

I started developing with the ADF (Java) back in Octoboer, the API documentation is 95% useless as it gives absolutely no information on anything. Some of the major classes are documented but that is it. In most cases you cannot even tell what a parameter is used for or what the expected values are.
