Hi,

I’m a Visual Paradigm user (Visual Paradigm for UML (Enterprise Edition) v6.4 (Build sp2\_20090411)) and I have a little problem with reverse engineering.  
I ha a java class :

public class MyClass {

```
/**
 * Method description.
 * 
 * @param myParam blabla.
 * 
 * @return blablabla.
 * @throws DataSourceException balbla.
 */
public String myMethod(String myParam)
		throws DataSourceException;

```

}

When i reverse it, the class i well generated but there are some javadoc problems.  
The myMethod documentation generated is : Method description.  
The myParam parameter documentation generated is : blabla. @return blablabla. @throws DataSourceException balbla.

Why the @return, @throws don’t appear in the method return documentation instead of myParam parameter documentation ?

Thank for your help.
