      The javadoc crashes with a DocletAbortException on invalid usage of @value. As a part of the fix, the doclint needs to be updated to check for valid usage of @value and generate appropriate error/warning messages.

      The @value should only be used with constant fields that have a value. The tag has an optional field name parameter which has a constant value.
