DocCheck tool
Hi,
I am using DocCheck to check the javadoc tags used in the program files. The output produced highlights the various missing tags and errors. But, it does not list if a @author tag is missing. Is there a way I can make DocCheck list missing @author, @version tags also in the report it generates ?
Regards,

That's odd. I've always seen it list missing @author tags.
The was the first tag it ever checked for.
The -authorID option is there to change the default author
name when the comment-template is constructed.
It should be a class 3 error (a tag error).
I don't have an example ready at hand that shows that output.
That leaves open the possiblity that there could be a bug
(most class 3 errors are member errors. They're handled
fine. It's possible there is a problem reporting class 3 errors
for classes. I don't want to think so, but it might be true.
I would say that is definitely supposed to, if it's not doing so,
it's a bug, and check the class 3 error list to be sure, before
reporting the bug.
Thanks!
