How to write "@" in javadoc?

Question

There is a @ in my code example in javadoc:

 * <pre>
 * public class ArticleService<Article, ArticleDao> {
 *     @Autowired
 *     private ArticleDao articleDao;
 *     protected ArticleDao getDao() { return articleDao; }
 * }
 * </pre>

It breaks the javadoc, because the preview looks like:

first of al this post is to ambiguous and second of all that's definately not how you write javadoc, I suggest looking at some examples. — awiebe, Dec 11 '11 at 02:59
@wrschneider99, this is a duplicated question because we can't search `@` in SO, or google. — Freewind, Dec 11 '11 at 03:18

Use the {@literal} tag:

 * <pre>
 *     {@literal @Autowired}
 *     private ArticleDao articleDao;
 * 
 *     protected ArticleDao getDao()
 *     {
 *         return articleDao;
 *     }
 * </pre>

I have just tested this to make sure it works... and it does
