    I don’t know if it is already implemented, I definitely do not feel my nose bumped into it.

    It would be useful, if it could be possible to configure doclet tag validation completion for Java (and possibly other appropriate) editors.

    Currently, AFAIK, only Javadoc tags and maybe a couple of xdoclet tags are recognized.

    However it would be useful if for example if one could configure (per project preferably with per workspace defaults) other tags which when appearing on /** comments of classes, constructors and members could be recognized for (tag and attribute name) autocompletion and for validation.

    It should be configurable so that
    – marker tags (tags without any attributes or value)
    – value-only tags (with allowed values for the whole tag, not attributes),
    – tags with
    1. known attributes (having possibly specified values), and
    2. known flags (attributes having no attribute value)

    could be configured for the tag.

    Like e.g.:

    Marker tag:

    @taglib.tagname

    Value-only tag:


    @taglib.tagname value

    Tag with attributes and flags:


    @taglib.tagname
       attribute-name=”value”
       flag-name

    This would be a great help for those of us using xdoclet or other tag-based generation frameworks.

    Regards,

    Robert
