Method Detail
commentText
String commentText()
Deprecated.Return the text of the comment for this doc item. Tags have been removed.- Returns:
- the text of the comment for this doc item.
tags
Tag[] tags()
Deprecated.Return all tags in this Doc item.- Returns:
- an array of
Tagobjects containing all tags on this Doc item.
tags
Tag[] tags(String tagname)
Deprecated.Return tags of the specifiedkind in this Doc item. For example, if 'tagname' has value "@serial", all tags in this Doc item of kind "@serial" will be returned.- Parameters:
tagname- name of the tag kind to search for.- Returns:
- an array of Tag containing all tags whose 'kind()' matches 'tagname'.
seeTags
SeeTag[] seeTags()
Deprecated.Return the see also tags in this Doc item.- Returns:
- an array of SeeTag containing all @see tags.
inlineTags
Tag[] inlineTags()
Deprecated.Return comment as an array of tags. Includes inline tags (i.e. {@linkreference} tags) but not block tags. Each section of plain text is represented as aTagofkind "Text". Inline tags are represented as aSeeTagof kind "@see" and name "@link".- Returns:
- an array of
Tags representing the comment
firstSentenceTags
Tag[] firstSentenceTags()
Deprecated.Return the first sentence of the comment as an array of tags. Includes inline tags (i.e. {@linkreference} tags) but not block tags. Each section of plain text is represented as aTagofkind "Text". Inline tags are represented as aSeeTagof kind "@see" and name "@link".If the locale is English language, the first sentence is determined by the rules described in the Java Language Specification (first version): "This sentence ends at the first period that is followed by a blank, tab, or line terminator or at the first tagline.", in addition a line will be terminated by block HTML tags: <p> </p> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr> <pre> or </pre>. If the locale is not English, the sentence end will be determined by
BreakIterator.getSentenceInstance(Locale).- Returns:
- an array of
Tags representing the first sentence of the comment
getRawCommentText
String getRawCommentText()
Deprecated.Return the full unprocessed text of the comment. Tags are included as text. Used mainly for store and retrieve operations like internalization.- Returns:
