javadoc

when I read the API documentation of Java I see a field with the name "Field Summary". What this Part is used for?. What is the use of the constant and classes in this field?. thanks. The “Field Summary” of a generated Javadoc page is for summarizing the (typically public and protected) fields of a class, and providing links to the more detailed descriptions of the fields further down the page. Just as with methods, the text in the summary section for fields consists of the first sentence from the associated detail section. Since good practice has evolved for Java that means that mutable

I work on a code base that is ... messy. One aspect of this messiness is that we have a ton of methods whose signatures no longer match the associated Javadoc. For instance: /** * * @ param foo */ public void doFoo(int bar) {... I'm no fan of generated Javadoc (as it's almost always worthless), but I really could use a tool that would go through our code, find cases like that, and: remove the javadoc for the "foo" param add javadoc for the "bar" param (but just a blank one, no auto-generated doc or anything) Does such a tool exist? If not, does a tool that just does #1 exist? Even that much

I tried adding this type of title part on my javadocs, I failed to do it in a simple and useful way. The only way I could do it was with HTML and I don't think HTML should have a place in the code. This is an example of a javadoc I made. I want my javadoc to look exactly like the androids, so I want the add the title part marked with a red square, without going in to HTML. If you want your generated documentation to contain links to classes like java.lang.String you have to tell javadoc where to link. E.g. on the command line you can say -link http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/ This is

I want to easily create links to classes, methods, fields, etc. from within my Javadocs without having to type out the full expression e.g., {@link AllowAllHostnameVerifier} . What is the fastest way to do this in Eclipse? Jeff Axelrod If you don't already have a Javadoc for the element you're documenting, press Shift + Alt + J . Using the AllowAllHostnameVerifier example, from within the Javadoc comment where you'd like the link, use autocomplete: Type AAHV then Ctrl + Space . Select {@link AllowAllHostnameVerifier} from the list of autocomplete options by pressing ↓ then Enter . As an

1) Javadoc artifacts tend to take too much space and time to download. For example, scala-library-2.10.2-sources.jar is 1 Mb, but scala-library-2.10.2-javadoc.jar is 34 Mb. 2) Javadoc is mostly not needed at all. As modern IDEs can fetch all info from sources. So I wanted to find a way to alter sbt settings to completely disable javadoc download among third-party library dependencies. Vadzim https://github.com/mpeltonen/sbt-idea/issues/225#issuecomment-19150022 kindly gives the answer: The javadoc is typically much more bulky and less useful than the sources. I have at least turned off

This question already has answers here : How to make API javadocs for Google Play Services APIs and Firebase APIs show up in Android Studio rather than decompiled classes with no docs? (2 answers) I'm trying to view Firebase's Javadoc API for Android on Android studio. I found the javadoc on the internet. For example: DatabaseReference . The problem is that I don't see an option to do it in Android Studio. See screenshot. I have an option to attach the source code of firebase, but can't find it on the web. How do I view Firebase's javadoc in Android Studio? Thanks. The Firebase source is not
