Javadoc link to method in other class

For the Javadoc tag @see, you don't need to use @link; Javadoc will create a link for you. Try

@see com.my.package.Class#method()

Here's more info about @see.

So the solution to the original problem is that you don't need both the "@see" and the "{@link...}" references on the same line. The "@link" tag is self-sufficient and, as noted, you can put it anywhere in the javadoc block. So you can mix the two approaches:

/**
 * some javadoc stuff
 * {@link com.my.package.Class#method()}
 * more stuff
 * @see com.my.package.AnotherClass
 */

Aside from @see, a more general way of refering to another class and possibly method of that class is {@link somepackage.SomeClass#someMethod(paramTypes)}. This has the benefit of being usable in the middle of a javadoc description.

From the javadoc documentation (description of the @link tag):

This tag is very simliar to @see – both require the same references and accept exactly the same syntax for package.class#member and label. The main difference is that {@link} generates an in-line link rather than placing the link in the "See Also" section. Also, the {@link} tag begins and ends with curly braces to separate it from the rest of the in-line text.
