Description loki 2005-06-08 08:27:24 UTC
When creating a javadoc comment in java source code I would love to have a '@see
super' feature. This feature creates an automatic @see reference to the super
class or to the interface. This way if the behavior of my new method is the same
as the behavior described in the super class I don't have to whip out a full
reference. I can simply rightclick and generate a '@see' statement.

This is especially handy when creating new code based on a framework such as for
instance Struts where all execute methods share the same behavior (the classes
are of course different).
