Hi!,
    I need a way to associate a javadoc comment with the corresponding
Java Element. And access that programmatically in Java.
e.g. For the code below
/**
      * This is my Class
    */
        public class X {
         
        }

I need something like
<sometype> myJavaElement = <something which gives class X>
myJavaElement.getComment();

One way which I was thinking of was using the AntLR and modifying the
lexer code generated by the AntLR. But was wondering that this problem
might (should ) have been faced by other people and if there exists
an open source tool which can be used for this purpose.
I looked at qdox but that I guess will not be able to handle package
level comments which is a basic requirement for me.

Any help is highly appreciated and highly awaited.

Thanks a lot,
Sudhanshu
