I was looking for a javadoc plugin for eclipse so that I can document for methods etc. I know in eclipse you can do ALT + SHIFT + J but I was wondering if there was a more powerful plugin.
I use GhostDoc in VS 2008 which basically when you say document it enters all the parameters and return values and even starts the paragraph for you.
I was hoping for something like that in eclipse because with ALT + SHIFT + J the only this it does is install the
/ ***** /* lines
Any help really appreciated
GhostDoc isn't available for eclipse, its c# only, I use - its great.
Does something exist similar for eclipse?
The Javadoc Plugin uses the Javadoc tool to generate javadocs for the specified project. For more information about the standard Javadoc tool, please refer to Reference Guide. The Javadoc Plugin gets the parameter values that will be used from the plugin configuration specified in the pom.
From the main menu, select Tools | Generate JavaDoc. In the dialog that opens, select a scope — a set of files or directories for which you want to generate the reference, and set the output directory where the generated documentation will be placed.
Shift-Alt-J is a useful keyboard shortcut in Eclipse for creating Javadoc comment templates.
