[jboss-user] [JBoss jBPM] - Request for comment: Whitespace and line-ending preservation

I'm planning to JIRA this if no one has any counter-arguments. The current Script implementation collapses script whitespace and eliminates line-endings in scripts - even when within a !CDATA. I believe this is often bad and never good, apart from trivial optimization. Line-ending preservation is necessary for use of // comments. Whitespace and line-ending preservation are useful for script compiler error messages that call out a line and column position of the error. These positions are meaningless if space has been collapsed and line-endings removed. I happen to be experimenting with using other script languages (especially Groovy) for which line endings are meaningful. You probably don't care about that, though! The fix is easy: in Script.read(), replace both occurrences of getTextTrim() with getText(). Any thoughts? -Ed Staub View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4051689#...
