I find it very funny that I can alter code completion to integrate MIT's 6.170 javadoc tags, yet I cannot make syntax highlighting show them in a nice way. I think you guys should do something about that, for completeness. Also, I'm supposed to write a plugin doing this, so it would be very nice to have a way to do it. I appologize in advance if the feature was there but I didn't see it... but I've really been looking for it. And I did implement auto-completion.
how did you integrate those tags?
I wrote a plugin extending org.eclipse.jdt.ui.javadocCompletionProcessor. I am attaching the plugin below. I think this bug belongs to the "text" group, because it would be best to have the parser mark the tags in the right way, so that all tools using the AST work on new javadoc tags. Perhaps it would be most convenient to provide plugins with a way to register javadoc tags. This way, you can't have a bad plugin mess up existent functionality. On the other hand, this would probably limit the flexibility on the new javadoc tags' format.
Created attachment 11157 [details] Plugin providing code completion for 6.170-specific javadoc tags. This is the complete workspace for the plugin I described.
