Javadoc @link references in Android Studio

Question

I\'m trying to generate some Javadocs with Android Studio. I\'m referring with {@link #method()} a method in the same class as the link but I still get a refe

Answer 1

In Android Studio within a javadoc comment, try typing {@ and then hitting ctrl+space to see what pops up...

After choosing link, hit space.

Now try ctrl+space again for a list of all possible classes.

To just make a reference to a method/data within the current class, type # and then ctrl+space to see a list of probably-what-you-want.

Don't forget to make sure the brackets are closed!

Answer 2

The format for the javaDoc lint tag in Android Studio is:

{@link package.class#member label}

Here is more information on javaDoc tags.

I don't know if anyone is still struggling with it but if you are and {@link is not working then make sure your comment block looks something like this

/**
* {@link 'your reference'
*/

make sure that the comment block starts with two * and not one, apparently, this works for me in the android studio.
