Description
Gradle 7.6.1
Spotless 6.25.0
Ubuntu 22.04
Java 11 or 17
Our code is:
```
import static foo.bar.
FooClass.CONSTANT;
```
The import class package is very very long so it's broken across multiple lines, but I believe any import will reproduce the issue.
The spotless stacktrace is:
```
Step 'removeUnusedImports' found problem in 'path/to/offending/file.java':
14:84: error: expected
com.google.googlejavaformat.java.FormatterException: 14:84: error: expected
at com.google.googlejavaformat.java.FormatterException.fromJavacDiagnostics(FormatterException.java:51)
at com.google.googlejavaformat.java.RemoveUnusedImports.parse(RemoveUnusedImports.java:264)
at com.google.googlejavaformat.java.RemoveUnusedImports.removeUnusedImports(RemoveUnusedImports.java:218)
at com.diffplug.spotless.glue.java.GoogleJavaFormatRemoveUnusedImporterFormatterFunc.apply(GoogleJavaFormatRemoveUnusedImporterFormatterFunc.java:38)
```
Using `toggleOffOn()` with `// spotless:off` and `// spotless:on` around the offending import(s) makes no difference because the code cannot be parsed.
Gradle plugin block:
```
spotless {
enforceCheck false
java {
toggleOffOn()
target 'src/**/*.java'
encoding 'UTF-8'
lineEndings 'UNIX'
importOrderFile("/path/to/import-order-file")
removeUnusedImports()
}
}
```
My workaround at the moment is to add:
```
targetExclude 'path/to/offending/file.java'
```
to our gradle plugin config.
At a minimum the `toggleOffOn()` should work but in theory, since this is legal java, the parser should be able to deal with it and it should just work.
