Taglets Collection

Welcome to the Taglets Collection

The Taglets Collection is a utility suite around the JavaDoc tool. It offers:

Preconfigured Tags

A suite of preconfigured extended tags for like formatting the text of JavaDoc comments.
Examples include: @adm $Revision: 1.11 $ $Date: 2008/03/30 12:43:22 $ for automated inclusion of formatted repository keywords or {@table ...} for simple tabular.

Built-in Generator Tags

Support for well-known generator tags like e.g. for XDoclet or EMF tags.
Examples include: @ejb.bean, @web.servlet, @hibernate.set, @axis.service or even @model.

Custom Tags

A set of easy to configure taglets that allow pattern-based definition of custom JavaDoc tags.
Examples include: Taglets that perform ANT like parameter substitution (${my.param}) or use Java regular expressions to transform tag text.

Simple Taglet API

It also provides an interface similar to the standard Taglet API which aims to be more powerful while still simpler to use.
Highlights include: Independence of J2SE and JavaDoc version, access to the JavaDoc logging facility, access to the generated documentation root and a shutdown hook.
