[PATCH 3/9] finer control over error vs. warnings

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

 



Until now once an error is emitted, warnings are no more emitted,
only others errors are.

While it make some sense as once an error is encountered, things
can be left in an incoherent state and could cause lots of useless
warninsg because of this incoherence.
However, it's also quite annoying as even unrelated warnings are
so silenced.

Fix this by:
- use a specific flag for this: 'has_error'
- make the distinction between the current phase and some previous
  phases (but for now we only care about parsing vs evaluation)
- if an error have been emitted in a previous phase (at parsing)
  warning are suppressed for the current phase and all future
  phases
- if an error is emitted in the current phase (evaluation) the
  flag is reset after each functions/symbols

So, for example, a type error in function a() won't suppress
warnings for function b(), while a parsing error still inhibit
all further warnings.
