JDK-8151565 - Exclude FX class files from javadoc classpath to workaround JDK-8151191
Description
To reproduce this, you need to apply the patch for JDK-8150130 to a recent jdk9-dev and then use that JDK to build the JavaFX docs as described in JDK-8150130.

We get the following exception:

javadoc: error - jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.DocletAbortException: jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.DocletAbortException: jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.DocletAbortException: com.sun.tools.javac.code.ClassFinder$BadClassFile: bad class file: /localhome/kcr/javafx/9-kcr/jfx/rt/modules/web/build/classes/main/javafx/scene/web/HTMLEditorSkin$2.class
  bad enclosing method attribute for class javafx.scene.web.HTMLEditorSkin$2
  Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.
Comments
Based on a suggestion from Kumar, I was able to come up with a workaround, which I will push to FX this week. See JDK-8151565

Problem comes from reading class files for local or anon inner classes, when the enclosing class is being read from source.

Turning on debugging, the issue seems to lie deep within javac. Caused by: com.sun.tools.javac.code.ClassFinder$BadClassFile: bad class file: /scratch/kumasrin/JFX/9-dev/rt/modules/web/build/classes/main/javafx/scene/web/HTMLEditorSkin$2.class bad enclosing method attribute for class javafx.scene.web.HTMLEditorSkin$2 Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath. at com.sun.tools.javac.jvm.ClassReader.badClassFile(ClassReader.java:260) at com.sun.tools.javac.jvm.ClassReader.readEnclosingMethodAttr(ClassReader.java:1159) at com.sun.tools.javac.jvm.ClassReader$11.read(ClassReader.java:1031) at com.sun.tools.javac.jvm.ClassReader.readAttrs(ClassReader.java:1265) at com.sun.tools.javac.jvm.ClassReader.readClassAttrs(ClassReader.java:1279) at com.sun.tools.javac.jvm.ClassReader.readClass(ClassReader.java:2230) at com.sun.tools.javac.jvm.ClassReader.readClassBuffer(ClassReader.java:2321) at com.sun.tools.javac.jvm.ClassReader.readClassFile(ClassReader.java:2334) at com.sun.tools.javac.code.ClassFinder.fillIn(ClassFinder.java:350) at com.sun.tools.javac.code.ClassFinder.complete(ClassFinder.java:287) at com.sun.tools.javac.code.ClassFinder.access$000(ClassFinder.java:74) at com.sun.tools.javac.code.ClassFinder$1.complete(ClassFinder.java:166) at com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol.complete(Symbol.java:590) at com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol$ClassSymbol.complete(Symbol.java:1085) at com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol$ClassSymbol.flags(Symbol.java:1019) at com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol$TypeSymbol.getEnclosedElements(Symbol.java:756) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.Utils.getItems0(Utils.java:2259) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.Utils.getItems0(Utils.java:2254) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.Utils.recursiveGetItems(Utils.java:2242) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.Utils$14.visitPackage(Utils.java:2227) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.Utils$14.visitPackage(Utils.java:2223) at com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol$PackageSymbol.accept(Symbol.java:937) at javax.lang.model.util.AbstractElementVisitor6.visit(AbstractElementVisitor6.java:115) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.Utils.getItems(Utils.java:2236) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.Utils.getClasses(Utils.java:2013) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.Utils.getAllClasses(Utils.java:2146) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.Utils.findClassInPackageElement(Utils.java:980) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.WorkArounds.searchClass(WorkArounds.java:217) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.WorkArounds.searchClass(WorkArounds.java:210) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.Utils.findClass(Utils.java:998) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.taglets.ThrowsTaglet.inherit(ThrowsTaglet.java:76) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.util.DocFinder.search(DocFinder.java:257) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.taglets.ThrowsTaglet.inheritThrowsDocumentation(ThrowsTaglet.java:133) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.taglets.ThrowsTaglet.getTagletOutput(ThrowsTaglet.java:164) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.taglets.TagletWriter.genTagOutput(TagletWriter.java:246) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.formats.html.HtmlDocletWriter.addTagsInfo(HtmlDocletWriter.java:308) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.formats.html.MethodWriterImpl.addTags(MethodWriterImpl.java:208) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.builders.MethodBuilder.buildTagInfo(MethodBuilder.java:229) at sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor9.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:520) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.builders.AbstractBuilder.invokeMethod(AbstractBuilder.java:189) at jdk.javadoc.internal.doclets.toolkit.builders.AbstractBuilder.build(AbstractBuilder.java:143) ... 50 more
