Finding non-Java source files.

[duncan.m...@gmail.com]

I've recently been working on improving line maps and producing coverage reports for a non-Java language running on the JVM and ran into a couple of issues because the source is not organised in a Java like source structure.

I've got round this by patching Jacoco to try finding non-Java source files using just the source file information if the lookup including the package fails. I also had to normalise directory separators to avoid problems with backslashes.

This seems to be a good improvement both for us and other dynamic languages implementations such as Nashorn's which follows a similar pattern.

Would the project be open to patches for this?

Duncan.

Hi Duncan,

is there a place where we can take a look into your improvements? In
general small and specific patches (preferable with test cases) help to
get reviewed and adopted into the JaCoCo source base.

I'll put together a pull request. Need to add some unit tests etc. First.

I've now created a pull request with the necessary changes and some new unit tests to cover the functionality.
