Re: [xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Remove unnecessary javadoc for overriding methods

Hi devs, I've just realized that using @override is enough to generate a proper javadoc copied from the overriden method and that checkstyle doesn't complain either. Basically instead of writing: /** * {@inheritDoc} * * @see org.xwiki.logging.LoggerManager#popLogListener() */ @Override public EventListener popLogListener() We can simply write: @Override public EventListener popLogListener() Advantages: 1) Less text to type and smaller class files 2) Less duplicated text I thus propose to use this from now and to progressively remove unnecessary javadoc in our legacy code.
