In this case, 15 * the method doesn't do any significant work 16 * so that is OK. 17 * 18 * The @returns tag is an example of a standard 19 * Javadoc tag. Other typical tags you might 20 * add to a method are @param, @exception, etc. 21 * 22 * The @common:operation tag is a Workshop-specific 23 * Javadoc tag that marks this method as an 24 * exposed method of the web service. 25 * 26 * @return 'Hello, World!', of course. 27 * 28 * @common:operation 29 */ 30 public String Hello() 31 { 32 return "Hello, World!"; 33 } 34 }`
