/**
 * <div>
 * Checks the Javadoc of a method or constructor.
 * </div>
 *
 * <p>
 * Violates parameters and type parameters for which no param tags are present can
 * be suppressed by defining property {@code allowMissingParamTags}.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * Violates methods which return non-void but for which no return tag is present can
 * be suppressed by defining property {@code allowMissingReturnTag}.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * Violates exceptions which are declared to be thrown (by {@code throws} in the method
 * signature or by {@code throw new} in the method body), but for which no throws tag is
 * present by activation of property {@code validateThrows}.
 * Note that {@code throw new} is not checked in the following places:
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>
 * Inside a try block (with catch). It is not possible to determine if the thrown
 * exception can be caught by the catch block as there is no knowledge of the
 * inheritance hierarchy, so the try block is ignored entirely. However, catch
 * and finally blocks, as well as try blocks without catch, are still checked.
 * </li>
 * <li>
 * Local classes, anonymous classes and lambda expressions. It is not known when the
 * throw statements inside such classes are going to be evaluated, so they are ignored.
 * </li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>
 * ATTENTION: Checkstyle does not have information about hierarchy of exception types
 * so usage of base class is considered as separate exception type.
 * As workaround, you need to specify both types in javadoc (parent and exact type).
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * Javadoc is not required on a method that is tagged with the {@code @Override}
 * annotation. However, under Java 5 it is not possible to mark a method required
 * for an interface (this was <i>corrected</i> under Java 6). Hence, Checkstyle
 * supports using the convention of using a single {@code {@inheritDoc}} tag
 * instead of all the other tags.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * Note that only inheritable items will allow the {@code {@inheritDoc}}
 * tag to be used in place of comments. Static methods at all visibilities,
 * private non-static methods and constructors are not inheritable.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * For example, if the following method is implementing a method required by
 * an interface, then the Javadoc could be done as:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * &#47;** {&#64;inheritDoc} *&#47;
 * public int checkReturnTag(final int aTagIndex,
 *                           JavadocTag[] aTags,

 * </pre>
 * <ul>

 * checked.
 * Type is {@code com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks.naming.AccessModifierOption[]}.
 * Default value is {@code public, protected, package, private}.
 * </li>

 * Property {@code allowInlineReturn} - Control whether to allow inline return tags.
 * Type is {@code boolean}.
 * Default value is {@code false}.
 * </li>

 * <li>
 * Property {@code allowedAnnotations} - Specify annotations that allow missed documentation.
 * Type is {@code java.lang.String[]}.

 * </li>
 * <li>
 * Property {@code validateThrows} - Control whether to validate {@code throws} tags.
 * Type is {@code boolean}.
