JavaDoc for generated methods?

[ForceRs]

I have WB set up to use getter method for widgets. That is, the code it generates creates methods named getMY_WIDGET_NAME().

Is there a way to have a JavaDoc stub inserted when the method is generated by WB Pro?

VE did this and made it convenient to later document.

Thanks.

THis is now available in the latest Designer build.

Thanks, works great, but one small issue.

I have WB configured to display the "Enter important properties" dialog when I place widgets on my forms. The generated JavaDoc does not use the name I entered in that dialog.

For example, if I place a JPanel on my form, and type "pnMyPanel" as the variable name in the "Enter important properties" dialog, I get this javadoc:

Code: Select all

/**
* @return the panel
*/


I would expect to get this:

Code: Select all

/**
* @return pnMyPanel
*/


There is one other issue with the "Enter important properties" dialog. When I add a JPanel, it does not honor my default layout manager (as defined in Winow->Preferences...->Designer->Swing), it seems to default to FlowLayout. It seems that this only happens for the first JPanel. If I set it to BorderLayout, then the next time I add a JPanel, it is set to BorderLayout.

The method and the JavaDoc are actually created before the properties from that dialog are applied. I think we are just going to keep the template very simple and just show the @return tag by itself.

Hmmm. We were not able to reproduce this.
