put the cursor on the method name you want to add javadoc ,and then press alt + enter, there will be an add javadoc option in the popup. If the method already has a javadoc,then there will be no add javadoc option.
Writing Javadoc Comments In general, Javadoc comments are any multi-line comments (" /** ... */ ") that are placed before class, field, or method declarations. They must begin with a slash and two stars, and they can include special tags to describe characteristics like method parameters or return values.
Create JSDoc commentsPosition the caret before the declaration of the method/function or field to document, type the opening block comment /** , and press Enter . IntelliJ IDEA generates a JSDoc comment with a list of parameters ( @param ) and return values ( @returns ), where applicable.
In the Package Explorer view, select a Java project and click Project > Generate Javadoc with Diagrams > Automatically. In the Generate Javadoc wizard, under Javadoc command, select the Javadoc command (an executable file).
For IntelliJ 12:
Position caret above a method name, type /** and press Enter to let IntelliJ IDEA automatically generate JavaDoc stubs for this method. See here
For newer versions of IntelliJ (2018+), you can use this solution:
Typing /**
+ then pressing Enter above a method signature will create Javadoc stubs for you.
It's not possible at the moment. You may want to Vote for IDEABKL-1787.
for generate javadoc in intellij Idea go to Tools->Generate JavaDoc (4th option) click it and give path to save your Document
I have given up on hoping that IntelliJ will be able to do this. I now open my project in Eclipse, go to the desired files and invoke JAutoDoc.
Now there is a new plugin available for that. It works great, you can generate javadoc with alt+insert.
It's called "javaDoc", it's available directly in the plugin section. The documentation is here : https://github.com/setial/intellij-javadocs/wiki
There is JavaDoc Sync Plugin 8. http://plugins.intellij.net/plugin/?idea&id=3403 Generates javadoc for all methods in class. Works in Idea 10.
