- enum
ErrorKind: int; - Constants used to discriminate kinds of error messages.
- struct
Diagnostic; - Represents a diagnostic message generated during compilation, such as errors, warnings, or other messages.
- class
ErrorSinkCompiler: dmd.errorsink.ErrorSink; - Error message sink for D compiler.
- enum
Classification: Color; - Color highlighting to classify messages
error- for errors
gagged- for gagged errors
warning- for warnings
deprecation- for deprecations
tip- for tip messages
- nothrow void
error(Locloc, const(char)*format, ...); - Print an error message, increasing the global error count.Parameters:
Loc loclocation of error const(char)* formatprintf-style format specification ... printf-style variadic arguments - nothrow void
error(const(char)*filename, uintlinnum, uintcharnum, const(char)*format, ...); - Same as above, but takes a filename and line information arguments as separate parameters.Parameters:
const(char)* filenamesource file of error uint linnumline in the source file uint charnumcolumn number on the line const(char)* formatprintf-style format specification ... printf-style variadic arguments - nothrow void
errorBackend(const(char)*filename, uintlinnum, uintcharnum, const(char)*format, ...); - Callback for when the backend wants to report an error
- nothrow void
errorSupplemental(Locloc, const(char)*format, ...); - Print additional details about an error message. Doesn't increase the error count or print an additional error prefix.Parameters:
Loc loclocation of error const(char)* formatprintf-style format specification ... printf-style variadic arguments - nothrow void
warning(Locloc, const(char)*format, ...); - Print a warning message, increasing the global warning count.Parameters:
Loc loclocation of warning const(char)* formatprintf-style format specification ... printf-style variadic arguments - nothrow void
warningSupplemental(Locloc, const(char)*format, ...); - Print additional details about a warning message. Doesn't increase the warning count or print an additional warning prefix.Parameters:
Loc loclocation of warning const(char)* formatprintf-style format specification ... printf-style variadic arguments - nothrow void
deprecation(Locloc, const(char)*format, ...); - Print a deprecation message, may increase the global warning or error count depending on whether deprecations are ignored.Parameters:
Loc loclocation of deprecation const(char)* formatprintf-style format specification ... printf-style variadic arguments - nothrow void
deprecationSupplemental(Locloc, const(char)*format, ...); - Print additional details about a deprecation message. Doesn't increase the error count, or print an additional deprecation prefix.Parameters:
Loc loclocation of deprecation const(char)* formatprintf-style format specification ... printf-style variadic arguments - nothrow void
message(Locloc, const(char)*format, ...); - Print a verbose message. Doesn't prefix or highlight messages.Parameters:
Loc loclocation of message const(char)* formatprintf-style format specification ... printf-style variadic arguments - nothrow void
message(const(char)*format, ...); - Same as above, but doesn't take a location argument.Parameters:
const(char)* formatprintf-style format specification ... printf-style variadic arguments - alias
DiagnosticHandler= bool delegate(ref const(SourceLoc) location, Color headerColor, const(char)* header, const(char)* messageFormat, __va_list_tag* args, const(char)* prefix1, const(char)* prefix2) nothrow; - The type of the diagnostic handler see verrorReport for argumentsReturns:true if error handling is done, false to continue printing to stderr
- DiagnosticHandler
diagnosticHandler; - The diagnostic handler. If non-null it will be called for every diagnostic message issued by the compiler. If it returns false, the message will be printed to stderr as usual.
- nothrow void
tip(const(char)*format, ...); - Print a tip message with the prefix and highlighting.Parameters:
const(char)* formatprintf-style format specification ... printf-style variadic arguments - alias
FatalErrorHandler= bool delegate() nothrow; - The type of the fatal error handlerReturns:true if error handling is done, false to do exit(EXIT_FAILURE)
- FatalErrorHandler
fatalErrorHandler; - The fatal error handler. If non-null it will be called for every fatal() call issued by the compiler.
- nothrow void
fatal(); - Call this after printing out fatal error messages to clean up and exit the compiler. You can also set a fatalErrorHandler to override this behaviour.
- nothrow @safe void
halt(); - Try to stop forgetting to remove the breakpoints from release builds.
- nothrow void
unescapeBackticks(ref OutBufferbuf); - Replace double backticks in
bufwith a single backtick - enum
HIGHLIGHT: ubyte; - Embed these highlighting commands in the text stream. HIGHLIGHT.Escape indicates a Color follows.
