Annotation to disable JavaDocs

Question

Is there an annotation to declare that a certain method will not be included in the JavaDocs even though it is public?

Something like:

@nojavadocs
p         


        

Answer 1

Not if you're using Sun's JavaDocs tool.

They have a feature request for it, but it's been in low priority since 1997.

You can write a custom doclet to overcome this, or use a 3rd-party tool (DocFlex or such).
