Description matthies 2016-06-30 20:07:08 UTC 
In a javadoc comment like

    /**
     *  {@inheritDoc}
     *  <p>
     *  Here are some additional notes.
     *  And some more comments.
     */

everything up to "notes." is highlighted as Javadoc First Sentence, although the first sentence (generally) is within the inherited description.

When a javadoc comment contains an {@inheritDoc} tag within what is matched as the first sentence, it therefore should not be highlighted as such.
(Or else NetBeans should take the contents of the inherited description into account when it is available.)
