Deployment javascript problem: this bug manifests most frequently for apps
that include prototype.js in deployment mode so I'll use it as an example.
Prototype has this line:
attr:
/\[((?:[\w-]*:)?[\w-]+)\s*(?:([!^$*~|]?=)\s*((['"])([^\4]*?)\4|([^'"][^\]]*?)))?\]/
-----------------------------------------------------------------------^
When JavascriptStripper gets a hold of it, i think it sees that double quote
as the start of a string literal and it will start printing everything as is
after that until it sees a matching closing double quote. So it interprets
everything after that as a string literal until (much further down in the
prototype.js file)
document.write("<script id=__onDOMContentLoaded defer
src=//:><\/script>");
The double quote at the beginning of this line ends the string literal,
which means when we get to the double slash at src=//, it's interpreted as
a comment. So everything up until this point is actually fine (just not
stripped) but then this line blows up.
I've seen the short answer, which is:
getResourceSettings().setStripJavascriptCommentsAndWhitespace(false);
Is this a known bug? Should I open a JIRA for it?
