[PATCH v3 19/22] resolve_ref(): emit warnings for improperly-formatted references

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



While resolving references, if a reference is found that is in an
unrecognized format, emit a warning (and then fail, as before).
Wouldn't *you* want to know?
