> Support for Markdown comments in the standard doclet. > > To enable Markdown in a comment, start the comment with `/**md` followed by > whitespace. The syntax is as defined for CommonMark. > > The work is in 3 parts: > > 1. Update the Compiler Tree API to support Markdown tree nodes, containing > strings of (uninterpreted) Markdown source code. > 2. Import commonmark-java into the `jdk.javadoc` module, to be able to > convert Markdown strings to HTML. > 3. Update the standard doclet, to leverage the preceding two parts, to > translate Markdown in documentation comments to `Content` nodes. > > There are new tests both for the low level work in the Compiler Tree API, and > for the overall high-level work in the doclet. > > Background info: > https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/javadoc-dev/2023-January/005563.html
