How can you escape the @ character in javadoc?

Question

How can I escape the @ symbol in javadoc? I am trying to use it inside a {@code} tag, which is inside <pre> tags.

I already tried the html escape &#64; sequence, but that didn't work.

Answer 1

my solution is

/**

 * Mapper Test Helper.

 *

 * add the following annotations above the class

 * <pre>{@code

 * // junit5

 * @literal @ExtendWith(SpringExtension.class)

 * // junit4

 * @literal @RunWith(SpringRunner.class)

 * }</pre>
