Javadoc link to method in other class

Currently I’m referencing methods in other classes with this Javadoc syntax:

@see {@link com.my.package.Class#method()}

And in what I understand from the documentation this is the correct way to do this. But now to the funny part, or frustrating. When I generate this javadoc I first of all get following error:

warning - Tag @see:illegal character: "123" in "{@link com.my.package.Class#method()}"
warning - Tag @see:illegal character: "64" in "{@link com.my.package.Class#method()}"
warning - Tag @see: reference not found: {@link com.my.package.Class#method()}

The Generated HTML code of this is:

"," <code>com.my.package.Class#method()}</code> ","

And of course I have no link.
Can anyone tell me what’s happening, and any hints on how to fix this?

According to the ASCII table characters 123 and 64 for wold represent { and @, so why aren’t these characters valid when this syntax is correct according to the documentation?
