Bug ID: 57005
Summary: maven build for jdbc-pool broken with Java 8 because
of javadoc problems
Product: Tomcat Modules
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: jdbc-pool
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
The maven build for jdbc-pool crashes while creating the javadoc with following
error:
/Users/viretp/Dev/apache/tomcat/sandbox/trunk-maven-layout/modules/jdbc-pool/src/main/java/org/apache/tomcat/jdbc/pool/DataSource.java:66:
error: self-closing element not allowed
* Unregisters the underlying connection pool mbean.<br/>
^
The problem is, that java 8 has become more strict with javadoc and per default
javadoc will exits with an error if the syntax is not absolutely http
conformed.
How to repeat: (be sure to have java 8 version active)
cd modules/jdbc-pool
mvm clean install -DskipTests
There are at minimum 2 solutions for this:
1) fix the javadoc
--> this is my preferred option because the quality of the documentation
will be better. In some cases the syntax errors would avoid some informations
to be properly displayed in the final javadoc.
2) setup the javadoc plugin in maven to use a special flag to disable the
syntax verification.
--> no need to update the sources but the real problems are not solved with
this solution.
More information for this problem can be found here:

If nobody fixes this before and if I come to this I will fix the javadoc and
upload the patch here.
