The multi line comment consists in /* At the beginning of the line that you want to comment and at the end you use */ that way everything between /* and */ will be omitted by the java virtual machine. The documentation comment consists in /** at the beginning of the text, or statement that you want to be part of the documentation and ends with */ this time when you run a Javadoc the lines inside /** and */ will generate a HTML format document. if you are using Eclipse or NetBeans as your java text editor you can run and generate the Javadoc of the text that you put between /** and */, as you can see the difference between multi line comments and documentation comments are: /* multi line comments */ use one asterisk at the beginning of the comment line, and /** Javadoc or documentation comments */ use double asterisk at the beginning of the documentation line.
