Description Mauritz Løvgren CLA 2006-03-10 04:30:10 EST 
The following @see reference does not wrap at 80 characters as expected when using built-in Java Conventions code formatter.

    /**
     * Create or remove XMLCManagers as of the new configuration.
     * 
     * @see com.telenor.common.util.dynamic.ReconfigurablePlugin#reconfigure(org.jdom.Element)
     */

Ownership has changed for the formatter, but I surely will not have enough time to fix your bug during the 3.5 development process, hence set its priority to P5.
Please provide a patch if you definitely need the bug to be fixed in this version and I'll have a look at it...
TIA

There's nothing the formatter can do in this case as there's no blank in the reference. Since the beginning the formatter only wraps line when there's blank. 

I tried to change this while implementing the new comment formatter in 3.4 but this behavior change was refused by most of the formatter users and many bugs opened against it.

So, I do not change it again => close as WONTFIX
