In Eclipse, when you hover on an element, only the Javadoc shows, and the element’s (unconstrained) signature.

Suppose I have a class X <T extends Object> {}. If I use Eclipse’s Javadoc generator, I get:

/**
 * @param <T>
 */ 

The rendered Javadoc looks like this. Note the lack of type constraint information.

    com.domain.X<T>        Parameters:           <T>

Is there any way to show the generic type constraints from the Javadoc viewer in Eclipse?

    I entered an Eclipse bug/enhancement to address this issue. Incredibly, Markus Keller actually implemented/fixed this within 3-4 hours of the submission!
