How to mark logical sections of code in Java comments?

Question

Java classes are generally divided into logical \"blocks\". Is there a convention to mark these sections? Ideally, it would be supported by the major IDEs.

Answer 1

In addition to Andrey's answer provided, to use //region //endregion, we insert [BigAscii letters][1] in major code sections. When scrolling fast, it really stands out. One drawback of this approach is that I cannot search for it so you'd need to add a search term just below the "banner" like I do below.

Blockquote

//    _      _____          _____                  _   _
//   | |    |  __ \   /\   |  __ \      /\        | | | |
//   | |    | |  | | /  \  | |__) |    /  \  _   _| |_| |__
//   | |    | |  | |/ /\ \ |  ___/    / /\ \| | | | __| '_ \
//   | |____| |__| / ____ \| |       / ____ \ |_| | |_| | | |
//   |______|_____/_/    \_\_|      /_/    \_\__,_|\__|_| |_|
