Problems with Rhino

[foldi]

CSSLint seems to stall when running via Rhino from the command line.

I'm on os x 10.7.5 and have downloaded the latest Rhino (1.7R4), the latest csslint (v0.9.9 Build time: 12-September-2012 01:46:26), and have updated Java.

With three files in one folder, csslint-rhino.js, js.jar, and main.css, my command looks like this:

java -jar js.jar csslint-rhino.js main.css

The terminal stalls and never reports a success or fail.

Thanks.

Hmm, on my initial look, I'm able to get it to work correctly. I'll try on another machine.

I am able to repo as well. Also on OSX.

java version "1.6.0_35"
rhino 1.7R4
csslint-rhino 12-September-2012 01:46:26

Hangs even using a nearly empty CSS file, with just one empty class in it.

Tried csslint-rhino 14-May-2012 10:24:48, same thing.
Latest Node.js version works fine.

Sorry, I'm still not able to reproduce. I've tried on a couple of different machines with both Java 1.6 and 1.7 and it works fine for me. How are you using it? Here's what I typed (from the csslint directory):

java -jar lib/js.jar release/csslint-rhino.js demos/demo.css

[chase-seibert]

Extract: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/422013/csslint-test.tar.gz

java -jar js.jar csslint-rhino.js test.css

[chase-seibert]

java -version

java version "1.6.0_35"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_35-b10-428-11M3811)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.10-b01-428, mixed mode)

Same problem (hanging - 1 CPU core maxed) for me on Windows 7.

Java 1.7.0_09-b05
rhino1_7R4

java -jar rhino-js.jar csslint-rhino.js test.css

This is a problem with Rhino. I downloaded an old version of csslint and it still hangs. I downloaded an old version of Rhino and it works

[nzakas]

Can you post which versions of Rhino you tested?

rhino1_7R4 (current from their site)

[nzakas]

Is that the version that worked or the version that didn't? It would be
very helpful if you could provide both.

Check a prior post for the version that didn't work - I already posted that once before. The version that works is from the html5boilerplate project - I'm not at my computer right now

I've encountered this too. It looks to be a problem with rhino:

The problem appears to be in regular expressions involving \uFFFF:

$ java -jar js.jar -e "print(/[a-z_\u0080-\uFFFF]/i.test(\"x\"))"

hangs, but

$ java -jar js.jar -e "print(/[a-z_\u0080-\uFFFE]/i.test(\"x\"))"
true

doesn't. As a temporary fix, I've just changed all occurrences of \uFFFF to \uFFFE in csslint-rhino.js.

[nschonni]

any progress on this?

[nzakas]

Nope. I've not been able to verify versions where it's working versus where
it's not working. If anyone else wants to take a stab at that, please let
me know and I'll be happy to update the docs to indicate the appropriate
versions to use.

I filed this bug report: mozilla/rhino#107

[jwmcleod]

I've grabbed the latest version of Rhino from the source code repository (it builds as 7R5pre), and the problem has been fixed. Now all we need to do is wait for an official release...

[RamiroCampa]

Rhino1_6R7 and csslint v0.9.10 work fine checked!

[ejzn]

Just wanted re-iterate that this is still Obviously a problem with the release candidate. This thread saved me hours of trouble.
