cake error: illegal # token of *.coffee
ysminnpu opened this issue · comments
I am trying the 0.6 tree, but got a weird issue with cake. It always reports illegal # token for any cakefile target. The following is a detailed log of "cake test". But if I directly execute "nodeunit tests.coffe" instead of from cake, it will succeed. Any idea?
$ cake --verbose test
Running tests... (is your webclient up-to-date and nodeunit installed?)

Some tests failed (error: 1). Try --verbose.
That code hasn't been updated in a long time - 0.7 is where its at now. Probably the cakefile spec has changed a little and the cakefile hasn't been updated. Patches welcome.
