I get the following parse error, when using the cobertura-maven-plugin (2.5.1) with the javancss-maven-plugin (2.0):

The code piece uses Java 1.7 catching of multiple exception types:

try { ... } catch (IllegalArgumentException | IllegalStateException e) { ... }
}

Maybe this problem is already solved with the curernt version, but it is not solved for the last release maven plugins:

• cobertura-maven-plugin (2.5.1)
• javancss-maven-plugin (2.0)
