June 17, 2005 error line number off by 1? Or not? | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Greetings! Please admire this piece of code. char[] t = ""; blah char[] o = ""; if I try to compile this code I get that there is an error on line 3. ie. jic 15:06:28-> build test00.d test00.d(3): no identifier for declarator blah test00.d(3): semicolon expected, not 'char' if I add a few empty lines to the code, ie., jic 15:11:41-> cat test00.d char[] t = ""; blah char[] o = ""; and I try to compile that code, I get, jic 15:11:37-> build test00.d test00.d(7): no identifier for declarator blah test00.d(7): semicolon expected, not 'char' which points to line 7. Well, the problem is really on line 2, why does the compiler points to line 7 when the problem is really on line 2? Or, even worse, jic 15:24:19-> cat test00.d char[] t = ""; blah /* some comments here.. */ char[] o = ""; here is the compiler's output: jic 15:24:14-> build test00.d test00.d(15): no identifier for declarator blah test00.d(15): semicolon expected, not 'char' Just trying to understand, or is it a bug? Also, in this last case, the error should have been caught at line 4. Any ideas? thanks, josé |

Well, the problem is really on line 2, why does the compiler points to line 7 when the problem is really on line 2? Or, even worse, <snip> The compiler is correct. Consider the following code: int a = 2; int /* A */ b /* B */ /* C */ /* D */ int c; /* E */ As you can see the error is at the start of line E and not at the end of A or B.
