@link to another package inside of a package-info.java

Question

Is there any way to link from an package-info.java to another package outside of this package (in the same Project)?

If I try to do this in java 7 I always get:

warning - Tag @link: reference not found:

Answer 1

Both @link and @see support linking to packages.

I have the following code in one of my package-info.java files and the javadoc tool generates the link:

/**
 * <p>Note, however, that the classes in {@link gov.va.med.srcalc.domain}
 * define the vast majority of the data mapping via JPA annotations.</p>
 */
package gov.va.med.srcalc.db;

We use Gradle as our build tool and I have found, however, that Gradle does not generate the link and produces a reference not found: gov.va.med.srcalc.domain warning. Maybe it's a bug in Gradle.
