-- openjdk cannot run yui compressor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/287035 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenJDK, which is subscribed to openjdk-6 in ubuntu. Status in “openjdk-6” source package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Get the YUI Compressor from http://www.julienlecomte.net/yuicompressor/ (I've tested against 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 - both fail). Extract the zip, cd to the "build" directory. Create a text file named "test.js" and put some valid javascript in there (I just put in one line that says "alert('test');"). Run: java -jar yuicompressor-2.3.6.jar test.js With Sun Java, no error is reported and it works. With OpenJDK build 1.6.0_0-b11 (which is in Hardy Updates), no error is reported, and it works fine. With OpenJDK build 1.6.0_0-b12 (which is in Intrepid Main), you get this error: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException at com.yahoo.platform.yui.compressor.JavaScriptCompressor.printSourceNumber(JavaScriptCompressor.java:299) at com.yahoo.platform.yui.compressor.JavaScriptCompressor.parse(JavaScriptCompressor.java:335) at com.yahoo.platform.yui.compressor.JavaScriptCompressor.<init>(JavaScriptCompressor.java:532) at com.yahoo.platform.yui.compressor.YUICompressor.main(YUICompressor.java:120) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openjdk Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openjdk More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
