This parameter allows you to hide completely from the generated documentation some intermediate classes of your internal implementation (that for some reasons need to be public), while keeping in the documentation some of the fields and methods defined in those excluded classes, which you actually want to be part of your open API.

The tags specified in this parameter are treated as the following.

A class will be never mentioned in the documentation when at least one of the conditions is met:

1. The class has one of the specified tags.
2. This is an inner class and one of its enclosing classes has one of the specified tags.

Each inheritable member of any excluded class, which has subclasses to be documented, will be shown as if it belongs to those of them that are the nearest descendants of the member's original class.

The overall effect should be that the generated documentation will look as if the excluded classes themselves did never exist at all, however, everything else is in place and correct. (For that matter, see also description of the "Filter Classes & Members" parameter group.)

The multiple exclude-tag names must be separated with new lines ('\n'), semicolons (';') or colons (':'). For example:

  `@exclude
  @omit`
