Current implementation of the Template Generator stops processing
of the class files if it meets empty class file. All gathered
from the correct class files coverage data is lost.

Such behavior of the Template Generator is incorrect since it user can't
process directories and jar files which contains files with '.class'
extensions and these files are not class files (current edition
of the Jcov User Guide does not prohibit it).

To reproduce the bug please execute the test below. This test
compiles the sources with jcov support, creates empty class file
'empty.class', executes Template Generator, and finally dumps java.jcov
file to show that coverage data is lost:

-------------------------- test.java begin ---------------------------
public class test {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        System.out.println("-----------");
        System.exit(0);
    }
}
-------------------------- test.java end -----------------------------
