Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-4010:
--------------------------------------------

Hmm, true.

But I think never linking to any API w/ generics is insanity (the cure is worse 
than the bug..).  At least, the link works (it's just that the link text is 
missing the type param).

So I think this is a WONTFIX...?

> There seems to be a javadocs generation bug, whereby generic type params are 
> not properly escaped.  So if you use <A> as a type param (which we do in 
> AttributeSource.java), it produces invalid HTML.  The bug seems to be fixed 
> in java 7...

> http://lucene.apache.org/core/old_versioned_docs/versions/3_5_0/api/all/org/apache/lucene/util/AttributeSource.html
> The <A> generic type is gone, and that closing paren is red but should be 
> blue.
> The 3.6.0 javadocs are OK because we used java7 to generate them...
> I think we should avoid <A> to workaround it until we are on java 7...
