Javadoc question - modifying "private"

[Chrystal Wilson]

Hi there,

I'm using Ant, and would like to show private member variables in the Javadocs but not private methods. Does anyone know if there is a way to do this?

Thanks!

I don't think there is an easy solution for this.
The standard javadoc doclet allows to select:

-public
Shows only public classes and members.

-protected
Shows only protected and public classes and members. This is the default.

-package
Shows only package, protected, and public classes and members.

-private
Shows all classes and members.

You would have to write your own doclet to get what you want. There is some info available on the internets if you google for "customizing doclet".
