Hello,
Responding to some of code review feedback from Ulf about the unsigned 
API work, I've taken a pass at purging

<code>'&#92;u0030'</code>

from the jdk repo's javadoc and replacing it with

    {@code '\u005Cu0030'}

since {@code} is generally preferable.

Webrev with these changes and other <code></code> => {@code} 
transformations at

    http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~darcy/7132338.0/

With these changes, the javadoc builds runs without additional 
warnings and a specdiff against a reference copy of the javadoc shows 
no unexpected changes.

Thanks,

I looked through the patch. Looks like there is an issue in 
java.io.RandomAccessFile where all <code> usages have been changed to 
</code>. In java.io.DataInput I see that the javadoc doesn't go beyond 
about column 40 in many cases and maybe it would be good to clean this 
up while you are there.
