Preserve generic type variables and bounds #65

Open Sheikah45 opened 2 years ago

Sheikah45 commented 2 years ago

In the annotation processor we erase all the type parameters so the param types of methods are limited to their bounds which can be seen on the generic method in Documented Class in #63. However the javadoc tool actually preserves the generic type and bounds.

Do we want to preserve the generic type and bounds in the param types of the retained javadoc?

@dnault what are your thoughts on this?

Sheikah45 commented 2 years ago

@dnault bump, is this worth doing in your mind?

Hi @Sheikah45 . In my opinion, it's only worth doing if you or someone else has a use case for it.
