@author

The @author tag is used to document the author of Structural Elements.

Syntax

@author [name] [<email address>]

Description

The @author tag can be used to indicate who has created Structural Elements or has made significant modifications to them. This tag MAY also contain an e-mail address. If an e-mail address is provided it MUST follow the author’s name and be contained in chevrons, or angle brackets, and MUST adhere to the syntax defined in section 3.4.1 of RFC5322.

Effects in phpDocumentor

Structural Elements tagged with the @author tag will show an Author header in their description containing the contents of this tag.

If an e-mail address is provided in the tag then the Author will link to the mail address instead of displaying it.
