How can I automatically update the Javadoc when changing the method signature in Eclipse?

I am using Eclipse IDE for my Java Project.

I have one problem. I have the methods in my project which have the javadoc comments like as follows:

/**
 * Retruns the string representation of a input stream
 * @param in
 * @return
 * @throws IOException
 */
public static String getStringFromInputStream (InputStream in) throws IOException {
    StringBuffer out = new StringBuffer();
    byte[] b = new byte[4096];
    for (int n; (n = in.read(b)) != -1;) {
        out.append(new String(b, 0, n));
    }
    return out.toString();
}

Now I want to know that Is there any way by which whenever if I make changes in my method's signature, those changes reflect in the javadoc automatically.
