Cannot compile autogenerated code because of multiple java errors

[saibotma]

I used java --add-modules java.xml.bind -classpath jooq-3.11.3.jar;jooq-meta-3.11.3.jar;jooq-codegen-3.11.3.jar;postgresql-42.2.4.jar;. org.jooq.codegen.GenerationTool jooq.xml to autogenerate JOOQ code for my PostgreSQL 10 USER table.

The codegen tool finishes successfully however my program won´t compile because there are several Java syntax errors in the autogenerated code.

Some examples:
PgClass.java

/**
* @deprecated Unknown data type. Please define an explicit {@link org.jooq.Binding} to specify how this type should be handled. Deprecation can be turned off using <deprecationOnUnknownTypes/> in your code generator configuration.
*/
@java.lang.Deprecated
public final TableField<PgClassRecord, Object> RELPARTBOUND = createField("relpartbound", , this, "");

The compiler is telling me java: illigal start of expression

PgIndex.java:

/**
* The column <code>pg_catalog.pg_index.indoption</code>.
*/
public final TableField<PgIndexRecord, Object[]> INDOPTION = createField("indoption", .getArrayDataType(), this, "");

The compiler is telling me java: as of release 8, 'this' is allowed as the parameter name for the receiver type only, which has to be the first parameter

• jOOQ: 3.11.3
• Java: 1.8.0_181
• Database (include vendor): PostgreSQL 10
• OS: Windows 10
