Should I use JavaDoc deprecation or the annotation in Java? -
there @ moment, 2 ways mark code depreacted in java.
via javadoc
/** * @deprecated */
or annotation:
@deprecated
this problem - find bit declare both, when marking method deprecated when using eclipse. want use 1 of them.
however using annotation give compiler actual useful additional information?
but using annotation, cannot state why method deprecated - can javadoc, , deprecating method without specying why bad.
so, can use 1 of them? or should learn specify both?
you should use both. annotation allows compiler display warning whenever deprecated method used, , javadoc explains why. both important.
as per oracle's java annotations tutorial:
when element deprecated, should documented using javadoc @deprecated tag...
