Hello Steve,

     /**

      */
------------------------

I think such description reveals unnecessary level of code abstraction.
Developers always need to use BevelBorder.RAISED and BevelBorder.LOWERED constant and never their numerical representation. It would better to say that the method return the bevel type: RAISED or LOWERED.
I thought about that, but the method signature is
public *int*getBevelType()
and I wasn't sure if saying it returns "RAISED or LOWERED" clearly matched the signature. I will make it so.


------------------------
     /**
      * Returns whether or not the border is opaque.
+     *
+     * @return true
      */
     public boolean isBorderOpaque() { return true; }
------------------------
It would better to also add the similar comment from the parent AbstractBorder class like: "This implementation returns true". It seems that the "code" tag can be used with boolean values: {@code true}

okay, http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ssides/8040893/8040893.2/ has changes for above

thanks for the quick feedback,

Thanks,

Hello,

Could you please review the fix for the following bug:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8040893

Webrev corresponding:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ssides/8040893/

webrevComment.txt:
This addresses missing @parm and @return block tags in javadoc for
javax/swing/border classes as noted by doclint.

It does not address methods which are missing javadoc comment altogether,
of which there are many.

It also a adds @return to isBorderOpaque() methods which were incorrectly
inheriting the default, @return false, from AbstractBorder.


thanks,
