anybody gotten dokka to generate javadoc format with JDK 11?

[Joe]

for now you can tell dokka to use java 8/9, even on jdk11. something like https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/pull/469 will hopefully be in the next dokka release

[kevinherron]

@Joe I saw that PR when digging through issues but I don't see how it uses 8/9?

[kevinherron]

I see that it switches some links up, but it doesn't fix the problem with com/sun/tools/doclets/formats/html/HtmlDoclet does it?

[Joe]

TBH not sure, we never saw that particular error -- we build with jdk11 but target java8 bytecode, and can build dokka docs successfully (via maven plugin) with jdkVersion=8 on current release, or jdkVersion=11 with that PR applied

[kevinherron]

that PR seems irrelevant when you set noJdkLink = true

[kevinherron]

which is when i run into the error I mentioned
