JavaDoc - Can I divide methods into groups?

Question

I am currently creating the documentation for a class with many functions. Is there any way to organize the JavaDoc such that the methods in the overview are divided into a few categories?

Answer 1

Maybe try to refactor it so you don't have "many functions" inside one class. It is much better to divide code into small fractions that are easier for maintaining, readability, testing, debugging, documenting etc..

Answer 2

The JavaDoc tool does not have such a functionality. Even the JDK's methods aren't grouped in such a fashion.
