Does Javadoc have an equivalent to <![CDATA[ ... ]]>?
cdata, html, java, javadoc, xml
Solution
You can use JavaDoc's `@code` tag: `/** This parses {@code <complexType name="">} */`
Problem
Unfortunately, there is no CDATA in HTML. This is a pity, because it would be perfect for adding `javadoc` comments that include XML, so you don't have to escape the < and >, for example: ``` /**<![CDATA[ This parses <complexType name=""> ]]>*/ ``` However, it would be possible for `javadoc` to recognize the CDATA section, and convert it to HTML for you. For example: ``` This parses <complexType name=""> ``` Or it could use some simpler syntax than CDATA. Because `javadoc` is extensible, it's possible someone has added this functionality; or maybe `javadoc` already has it buried somewhere inside... Does anybody know?
