Description M. Gärtner CLA 2003-05-11 19:00:05 EDT
In a Java Editor, enter a Java class, give it a JavaDoc comment that contains an 
HTML Entity like ä ("a Umlaut")




/** @author Matthias Gärtner */




Hover over the class name and look at the tooltip: It displays




@author


	Matthias G&aumlrtner




Note that the semicolon is missing, the entity has not been detected correctly.


Note too that it works with certain other entities (", & for example)
