> Key: MJAVADOC-470
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-470
> Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin (Moved to GitHub Issues)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: javadoc
> Affects Versions: 2.10.3
> Reporter: Richard Sand
> Assignee: Robert Scholte
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: QDoxBug.java

>
> If a method comment has the end-comment tag without a preceding newline, the
> next method processed will become corrupted. I've attached a simple java file
> to this case that demonstrates the problem. In short, if Method1 has a
> comment like:
> {code}
> /**
> * This javadoc has no newline before the end-comment token
> *
> * @throws UnsupportedEncodingException
> * if UTF-8 is not supported */
> {code}
> then Method2's javadoc will be broken.
> The actual cause seems to be within the QDox library, where the library
> doesn't properly set the line number where the actual method begins.
