Transcrypt autotest compilation fails, apparently at minification step

Question

Just installed transcrypt. Autotest compilation succeeds but fails at minification. I tried updating to JRE 8, but same error. Any advice for making it work?

Thanks!

From the your console output it seems that, while you installed JRE 8, your system still uses JRE 6:

$ java -version

java version "1.6.0_65"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_65-b14-468-11M4833)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.65-b04-468, mixed mode)

Since you'r on Apple, there should be a "system preferences" dialog. As soon as there's more than one version of the JRE on you machine, there should be an item in this dialog that allows you to change the settings for Java, including which version it will default to.
