Java: JavadocElement location is off by one

[Marcono1234]

Version

CodeQL CLI v.2.5.2

Description

It appears for every JavadocElement the location within the Java source is off by one, and this adds up for every subsequent element.

Example

Java source:

/**
 * test1234567890
 * test1234567890
 * test1234567890
 * test1234567890
 * test1234567890
 * @author test1234567890
 * @author test1234567890
 * @author test1234567890
 * @author test1234567890
 * @author test1234567890
 */
class Test {
}

Code QL query:

import java

from JavadocElement j
select j, j.getLocation().getStartColumn()

Run the query for example in VSCode and click on each of the results
❌ Each JavadocElement is shifted to the left by one (in addition to the offset of previous elements):

Thanks 👍 I'll leave this for the @github/codeql-java team to review. (as you know they are currently quite busy, but do appreciate the suggestions you are making)
