Error with newer Java Version: could not get type for name

[S-Heinrich-de]

Hi guys,

i get an error "could not get type for name" on com.github.kongchen.swagger.docgen.mavenplugin.ApiSource.getValidClasses()
when i try to package my war with Java 11. With java 1.8 i have no issues.

Anyone else? Have you some workarounds or tipps?
