Xiangrui Meng commented on SPARK-7751:
--------------------------------------

This issue is addressed in SPARK-8967. We tried to use annotation instead of 
JavaDoc tag for "since". However, I didn't find a way to make it work.

> Add @since to stable and experimental methods in MLlib

> This is useful to check whether a feature exists in some version of Spark. 
> This is an umbrella JIRA to track the progress. We want to have @since tag 
> for both stable (those without any Experimental/DeveloperApi/AlphaComponent 
> annotations) and experimental methods in MLlib:
> (Do NOT tag private or package private classes or methods.)
> * an example PR for Scala: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/6101
> * an example PR for Python: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/6295
> We need to dig the history of git commit to figure out what was the Spark 
> version when a method was first introduced. Take `NaiveBayes.setModelType` as 
> an example. We can grep `def setModelType` at different version git tags.

> meng@xm:~/src/spark
> $ git show 
> v1.4.0:mllib/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/mllib/classification/NaiveBayes.scala

> {code}
> If there are better ways, please let us know.
> We cannot add all @since tags in a single PR, which is hard to review. So we 
> made some subtasks for each package, for example 
> `org.apache.spark.classification`. Feel free to add more sub-tasks for Python 
> and the `spark.ml` package.
