Thanks a lot for reporting this (btw, your snippet apparently got truncated) I will fix this in the upcoming version of the compressor (should be available within the next few weeks)

Raw Code:

AjxTimezone.getRule = function(clientId, tz) {
var rule = AjxTimezone._CLIENT2RULE[clientId];
if (!rule) {
// try to find the rule treating the clientId as the serverId
clientId = AjxTimezone._SERVER2CLIENT[clientId];
rule = AjxTimezone._CLIENT2RULE[clientId];
}
if (!rule && tz) {
var names = [ "standard", "daylight" ];
var rules = tz.daylight ? AjxTimezone.DAYLIGHT_RULES : AjxTimezone.STANDARD_RULES;
for (var i = 0; i

Will do. Thanks for the kind words.

Since YUIMin 1.0 came out i’ve been using it for my jQuery plugins:

http://wanderinghorse.net/computing/javascript/jquery/

On those pages i release all code as unpacked/packed/min’d/yuimin’d, so it may be interesting for you to see the size differences.

Would it be possible for you to set up a page specifically for YUImin, instead of in the blog? The reason is so that i know where to check for updates without having to back-track through all of your blog posts and so i can link to yuimin on my web pages (i hate linking to an out-of-date blog post).

If you set up such a page, please send me an email and let me know the URL.

PS: yuimin kicks butt. Great stuff.

I will consider this feature request for a future version.

We used to call ShrinkSafe directly like:

Context context = Context.enter();
context.setOptimizationLevel(-1);
Scriptable scriptable = context.initStandardObjects();
Reader reader = new StringReader(text);
String script = null;
int lineNum = 0;
Object securityDomain = null;

String mintext = org.mozilla.javascript.tools.shell.Main.compressScript(
context, scriptable, reader,
script, uri, lineNum, securityDomain
);

This is a bit ugly but it worked. Looking at the constructor for YUICompressor there is no way to do this without writing out a File (that I can see).

Would it be possible to add a new constructor option that took an InputStream or a String? This way for those Java programs that already have the input data it would be a very clean two line call to compress/minify source content.

YUICompressor compressor = new YUICompressor(input, output, charset, munge, warn, linebreak);
compressor.compress();

BTW: From initial tests on our source YUICompressor 1.1 is about 9% smaller vs ShrinkSafe after gzipping. Pretty impressive!

Since the YUI Compressor is open source, and under a very permissive license, feel free to make the necessary changes to fit your specific needs.
