Javadoc generation doesn't allows Parameters at JComboBox

I am trying to generate my javadoc with the following variable:

private JComboBox<String> monthsBox;

My problem is that javadoc brings up the following error:

type javax.swing.JComboBox does not take parameters private JComboBox monthsBox;

I tried to fix it with this answer like this:

/**
* Shows up a list of the available months.
 * 
 * @param<String>
 *            Names of the month.
 */
private JComboBox<String> monthsBox;

Still the same problem appears. Maybe I am just searching for the wrong topic.

Please help me out, thanks!

Solution

  • Thanks again to Reimeus for your quick advice. Just didnt remind that this type of declaration is available since jdk 7.

    Just installed java-7-openjdk-i386 and used that javadoc. Now everything is working fine (Just needed to delete the @param solution).
