Code example with annotation in JavaDoc

Question

Hello, my JavaDoc doesn't work when I have a code example with an annotation.

Any suggestions?

/**
 * <pre>
 * public class Demo {
 *    @DemoAnnotation
 *    public void demoMethod() {
 *    }
 * }
 * </pre>
 */ 
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Target({ElementType.METHOD})
public @interface DemoAnnotation {

Answer 1

Just write &064; instead of @.

Hello,

You must replace @ with @ in your JavaDoc.

Answer 3

Try adding the @Documented annotation, see Note: in this link.
