@webron looks like the errors are because of more strict parsing of javadoc tags. The @return value needs to be set for each method or it'll fail to build on java8. Can you please help with this one?

[webron]

I've made some fixes (not pushed yet) that caused a the javadocs generation to fail. However, I didn't encounter the issue @CPPExpert encountered. How did you run the javadoc compilation? Perhaps I need to test something else that I hadn't.

[fehguy]

Make sure you have Java 8 and run mvn install

[webron]

I have. Not getting the error the OP did. Got other javadoc-related errors which I'd fixed, but definitely not Invalid “self-closing element not allowed”.

JFYI I've got that error under JDK8u40 under Windows 7 64bit.

I fixed the self-closing element issues. e11fb95

@fehguy - duh, thanks for the update. I'll push the rest of the fixes.
