[shin820]

Hi,
I got the following error when parsing @charset "utf-8";

18:05:13.045 ERROR - Unable to parse file: D:\Refactoring_Test\test\01

I am not a css expert, but what is that ? before the charset? it should be just: @charset "UTF-8";

[shin820]

Actually there is no sign '?' in my CSS file, but it appears when CSS parsing.

hm... perhaps, its a char encoding issue... what is the encoding setting in the sonar-runner.properties? can you check is the file properly encoded in UTF8?

[shin820]

Yes, this is a encoding issue. The issue is result from that I'm a windows user and I used notepad to save this file as 'UTF8'.
About the details, please see http://koti.mbnet.fi/akini/java/unicodereader/

ok I will check can I do something from the plugin's side, thanks for the link!

can you try to reproduce this with the javascript plugin? so analyse a similar js file?
