Hi, since I got no response so far (stuck in moderator queue) this is a retry to get this through to the list.
I would assume that following the rules from http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/javadoc .html#inheritingcomments the javadoc output of public interface Test { void method(); public abstract class AbstractEmptyTest implements Test {} public abstract class DefiningEmptyTest implements Test { @Override abstract public void method(); } public class DirectTest implements Test { @Override public void method() {} } public class DefaultWithDefiningTest extends DefiningEmptyTest { @Override public void method() {} } public class DefaultWithEmptyTest extends AbstractEmptyTest { @Override public void method() {} } } should show at least a specified by link in the javadoc for method () on all non abstract classes? It seems to me that having an abstract class inbetween the concrete class with the implementing method and the original interface, somehow the specified by is not resolved. Any comments? Shall I file a bug? Did I misread the spec? Thanks -Sven P.S. Hope this makes it through this time. -- Sven Reimers * Senior Expert Software Architect * NetBeans Dream Team Member: http://dreamteam.netbeans.org * Community Leader NetBeans: http://community.java.net/netbeans Desktop Java: http://community.java.net/javadesktop * Duke's Choice Award Winner 2009 <https://mix.oracle.com/groups/18497>
