This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
The following 2 code situations each cause the editor to incorrectly give the hint "Missing @throws tag for E" Situation A public class A { /** * * @param <E> * @throws E */ public <E extends Exception> void method() throws E { } } Situation B public class B<E extends Exception> { /** * * @throws E */ public void method() throws E { } } As you can see, it clearly isn't missing. Clicking the hint to add a throws tag results in a duplicate entry in the javadoc.
