If you have the “Documentation for Android” package and the javadoc info still isn’t showing up, make sure the Android library settings point to the right folder: Project -> Settings -> Java Build Path, Libraries tab Android X.X -> Android.jar -> Javadoc Location: Should be something like “sdk_root/docs/reference/”. And to view the docs for a … Read more
Lombok is actually capable of filling out a partially defined builder class, so you can declare enough of the builder to make Javadoc happy and leave it at that. No need to delombok. The following worked for me in this situation: @Data @Builder public class Foo { private String param; // Add this line and … Read more
I don’t think Kayaman’s answer is sufficient as the question is how to use the @value tag in javadocs. I think the problem lies in the fact that the value of the field being referenced is not a literal value. In eclipse, when you have /** * {@value #ob2} object2 description */ public static final … Read more
I’ve lashed together a project with android-support-v4.jar just in the Android Dependencies part of the package view. I have a class public class CountriesFragment extends ListFragment {…} and an import of import android.support.v4.app.ListFragment; up above I created a file android-support-v4.jar.properties in the libs folder. It contains the lines: doc=c:\\[path-to-android-sdk]\\docs\\reference src=C:\\[path-to-android-sdk]\\extras\\android\\support\\v4\\src Presumably you’ll have to change … Read more
What you are describing is not supported by the javadoc generation tool. And I think that there is a good reason for this too: If your method in the subclass is merely an implementation of an abstract method, then I think it would be correct to leave the abstract class’ name in there. On the … Read more
It produces different formatting in javadoc you can try it in IDE: {@link #method()} – monospaced formatting (code) {@linkplain #method()} standard formatting Example:
It sounds like there are two things you want to do here: use good grammar but also use the literal, verbatim names of your classes so that users of your javadoc may look them up. One thing you can do when working with plurals is use the phrase “X instances”. So using your example, you … Read more
There are several tools that works like JavaDoc for C++ The most popular tool is probably doxygen. It can handle JavaDoc-like comments, and also several languages (e.g., C++, C, Java, Objective-C, Python, PHP, C#). It has pretty good support for tweaking the style of the HTML output using CSS (see the users list for example … Read more
Similar to David Conrad solution, you can use the full signature as a link description, using syntax: {@link class#method(signature) text-to-display} Remember to escape < and >. For example: {@link #parse(Map, String, String) parse(Map<String, String>, String, String)}
My answer is very much provided by Eddie, but his exact code doesn’t work for me (or at least when using the version of javadoc that comes with Java 1.6) If I do: javadoc -linkoffline http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/ http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/package-list -public FileName.java then javadoc complains: javadoc: warning – Error fetching URL: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/package-list/package-list If, on the other hand, I … Read more
