All Implemented Interfaces:

public class JavadocMissingWhitespaceAfterAsteriskCheck
extends AbstractJavadocCheck

Checks that there is at least one whitespace after the leading asterisk. Although spaces after asterisks are optional in the Javadoc comments, their absence makes the documentation difficult to read. It is the de facto standard to put at least one whitespace after the leading asterisk.

8.32
