[Geany-Users] 'Error regular expression' feature?

[Vitali Samurov]

I have modified compiler to output file and line, and Geany was able to highlight the line with default regex. Thanks!

Hello,

oh. So, the compiler output should look like e.g. GCC outputs, which Geany does parse well?



Well, certainly gcc outputs have been used most :)  


It would be the best course to use that if your compiler can be configured to produce it.  If it is a very good copy of gcc it may work with the built-in decoding and no regex will be needed.


But for example the regex can be used with Python output like


SyntaxError: ('invalid syntax', ('untitled.py', 28, 5, '\tfor:\n'))



can also be parsed because it has the filename untitled.py and line number 28 in the output.


The requirement for each line to have both is because compilers like C or C++ can interleave error messages from included headers with errors from the .c file so each line must be fully identified to allow marking in the source file.

Yes, but the regular expression has to have two captures, one that extracts
the line number and one that extracts the filename so it knows which file
and which line. And the filename and line no must be in the same line in
your compiler output.  That does not appear to be the case in the output
above (but it may simply be wrapped by the mailer).
