Hi there, i want to find out what classes need some javadoc love in my project. Is there a plugin for eclipse (or a standalone app) that would tell me what methods don't have a javadoc yet and perhaps even tells me if some are wrong (parameters changed etc).
This is more or less the last plugin i need to create great code :D thx in advance
Give CheckStyle a shot.
It will do all that and more. In particular, it will check for well-formed Javadoc comments on methods, params, packages, variables. It will flag them as you code, much like Eclipse does already with compilation errors.
It's really a great tool. Available as a plugin, ant task, or standalone.
If you are specifically after a Javadoc quality tool, then Sun's Doc Check Doclet has this covered.
See this question for hints on how to integrate it with eclipse.
+1 for CheckStyle - great tool for code quality in general
