Unrecognized character exception when merging file #166
Description
maven-minify-plugin 1.7.6
angularJS used on client side.
Hello,
I am trying to minify CSS and JS files.
If I use <skipMerge>true</skipMerge> my Maven build ends normally, files are correctly minified, one by one.
Now I would like to merge all the files in a single .js and .css files, but Maven build ends with ERROR.
Please find my configuration below
<charset>UTF-8</charset> <webappSourceDir>${basedir}/src/main/resources/static</webappSourceDir>
<cssSourceDir>css</cssSourceDir>
<cssFinalFile>style.css</cssFinalFile>
<cssSourceIncludes>
<cssSourceInclude>**/*.css</cssSourceInclude>
</cssSourceIncludes>
<cssSourceExcludes>
<cssSourceExclude>**/*.min.css</cssSourceExclude>
</cssSourceExcludes>
<jsSourceDir>js</jsSourceDir>
<jsSourceIncludes>
<jsSourceInclude>**/*.js</jsSourceInclude>
</jsSourceIncludes>
<jsSourceExcludes>
<jsSourceExclude>**/*.min.js</jsSourceExclude>
<jsSourceExclude>**/*angular*.js</jsSourceExclude>
</jsSourceExcludes>
<jsFinalFile>script.js</jsFinalFile>
<webappTargetDir>${project.build.directory}/classes/static</webappTargetDir>
<jsEngine>CLOSURE</jsEngine>
<closureLanguage>ECMASCRIPT5</closureLanguage>
<closureAngularPass>true</closureAngularPass>
<!-- <skipMerge>true</skipMerge> -->

<verbose>true</verbose>
</configuration>
Find below Maven error occuring as soon as I want to merge the minified files.
Only JS files seems to be implied.
