Maven/Java Compilation Error: GXDLMSBase.java

Just pulled the latest Java code from git. All the other tools compile successfully with my current install of maven (3.6.3) and java (11.0.10). The gurux.dlsm.server.example.java code fails with the error below. There looks like a dangling if statement at the line specified, but I do not know the code well enough to be certain. It is possible I am missing something simple here? Thanks.
