Please review the removal of code in `DocCommentParser` that created an error when encountering a spurious "@" character in an HTML attribute value after a line break.
The removed code (which was added in its current form in 2012) seemed to assume that such a "@" character was part of a block tag and therefore an indication of an unclosed attribute value. However, both line breaks and "@" are valid characters in HTML attributes. Note that valid content for HTML attributes in `DocCommentParser` is [text and entities as per HTML5][html5-attributes] as well as JavaDoc inline tags, but not block tags. [html5-attributes]: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/syntax.html#syntax-attribute-value The change adds two doctree tests, one to make sure HTML attributes with mixed values (text, line breaks, entities, inline tags, "@") are parsed correctly, and a second one to make sure actual unclosed attribute values are still recognized as errors. ------------- Commit messages: - JDK-8321500: javadoc rejects '@' in multi-line attribute value Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/21520/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=21520&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8321500 Stats: 77 lines in 2 files changed: 66 ins; 9 del; 2 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/21520.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk.git pull/21520/head:pull/21520 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/21520
