Is there a way to refer bean's property (both getter and setter) in Javadoc?

Question

Suppose I have a class with bean's property sum , which is implemented with setter void setSum(double value) and getter double getSum() .

Is it possible to refer this by single link in javadoc? Suppose I wish to describe some properties in class' preamble. For example, something like this:

/**
 * A Value class is a bunch of aggregation values
 * 
 * {@beanlink #sum} - sum of all values (hypothetic way)
 * 
 * {@link #getSum()} - sum of all values (conventional way)
 * 
 */

Answer 1

There isn't any @beanlink kind of tag in javadoc comments. See a full list of allowed tag javadoc of javadoc ;)

There is a -tag option that can be used to create custom tags. But that won't perfectly fit for your solution, ie creating links.
