However pretty inefficient ant "support" is pretty annoying. Thus I wrote a Css and Js Ant filter, which might be used e.g. in a copy task (for more info see http://iws.cs.uni-magdeburg.de/~elkner/yui/yuicompressor-2.3.5jel.readme.txt). BTW: Also improved performance by ~ factor 10 ;-). Yeep, that’s a good one. However pretty inefficient ant “support” is pretty annoying.

Just a note about the CPP invocation, I suggest to had the -CC flag to avoid comments stripping. The comment stripping will be performed by yuicompressor and it will preserve conditional comments.

Maybe that could be included in the documentaion (Readme file) so it is update for each release. Thanks Could you update the ant example for yuicompressor.jar to the latest release 2.3.5?
