Running maven with -T1C will cause maven to try to build modules in parallel, so if you have a multi-module project, at best it will build each module’s javadoc in parallel (if your dependency graph between modules allow it). The javadoc process itself is single-threaded, so you won’t be able to use multiple cores to … Read more
There are two main differences: {@code …} is more concise: easier to read (and type). Text within {@code …} will be automatically HTML-escaped for you. For example, {@code List<String>} is equivalent to <code>List<String></code>. See also the documentation for {@code}.
I’m not sure why Idea doesn’t use the @author tag by default. But you can change this behavior by going to File -> Settings -> File Templates and editing the File Header entry in the Includes tab. As of IDEA 14 it’s: File -> Settings -> Editor -> File and Code Templates -> Includes -> … Read more
For a whole project, may be not, but you can at least: go to the Package Explorer View expand the class you want to generate comment on (open each method) select all the opened elements in the class from that Package Explorer Tree alt+shift+J and voilà: comments generated on the class, and every method The … Read more
There is a difference between implementation and specification… Whilst on a particular implementation there may not be much point in providing different implementations, future implementations perhaps on different hardware may want to. Whether this method carries its weight in the API is debatable. Also the weak methods do not have happens-before ordering defined. The non-weak … Read more
I use Javadoc in my testing a lot. But it only gets really useful when you add your own tag to your javadoc. The main objective here is to make the test understandable for other developers contributing to your project. And for that we don’t even need to generate the actual javadoc. /** * Create … Read more
In eclipse Since package-info.java isn’t a valid identifier for a class it cannot be created as a class in Eclipse. I found that when you create a new package there is a check box to check if you want a package-info.java. To create a package-info.java file in an existing package: Right-click on the package where … Read more
If you (like me) really don’t like to violate DRY, then this is one of the most important lines of the javadoc ref: It is possible to have a comment with only a tag section and no main description. (@see http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/solaris/javadoc.html#tagsection) So it is perfectly valid (and working) for simple methods to write your javadoc … Read more
I’ve never been able to get regular xsd:documentation to be placed in the java source except if and only if it was a Complex Type. Documentation for elements, simple types, etc are ignored. So, I end up using jxb:javadoc. To do so, include the definition of xmlns:jxb=”http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxb” in your <xsd:schema> element. Add a child to … Read more
Not so much an answer as a workaround, but if you replace {@code …} with the old version <code>…</code> it will render curly braces how you expect. <code>{person} == ${person}</code> Unfortunately, this breaks angle brackets, so to the original question you need to escape these: <code><custom:meatball color=”<%= Meatball.RED %> nincompoop=”${person}” /></code> You can even cheat … Read more
