             Summary: Java 13: Fix Javadocs issues
                 Key: LUCENE-8729
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8729
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: general/javadocs
            Reporter: Uwe Schindler


On Policeman Jenkins I isntalled a preview release of JDK 13. The Oracle supplied one does not yet have the issue, but nightly builds of Alexej Shipilev contain a patch that does additional check on Javadocs comments when doclint is enabled, so the next OpenJDK builds of Oracle will likely have the same issue. It fails already in "javac". The output is: https://jenkins.thetaphi.de/job/Lucene-Solr-8.x-Linux/275/consoleText

Problem is HTML headings (like "H1" inside javadocs comments clashing with "H1" generated by Javadoc output, or "H3" without "H2"), in JDK-11 there is already a comment in the Javadocs spec (https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/specs/doc-comment-spec.html, "When writing documentation comments for members, it is best not to use HTML heading tags such as <h1> and <h2>, because the standard doclet creates an entire structured document, and these structural tags might interfere with the formatting of the generated document.".

The error is the following:

I think we should fix this and maybe don't use headings at all (as suggested in the Spec), or fix them to be at lease correct. Some hints to issues in latest JDK docs: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8220379

Not sure about doclint in general, I'l ask on maing lists, how this affects 3rd party code!
