Request - parse dmd exception output to make it compatible with vscode linkify

[aliak00]

The exception output format is e.g.

core.exception.AssertError@tests/optional.d(450): unittest failure

So vscode cannot recognize it as a file link since there's no file called core.exception.AssertError@tests in the cwd.

I wonder if there's anyway code-d can help out here?

good idea I can add a link provider but I don't know if it will work for the embedded console

Awesome! Fingers crossed ! And FYI opened this issue for DMD as well -> https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19254

I bet that won't go through though because it will break compatibility with programs (code-d included)

Aww :( well if it doesn’t then it doesn’t. Out of curiosity how would it break code-d? On Thu, 20 Sep 2018 at 16:56, Jan Jurzitza [email protected] wrote:

uh well after looking into it, it was actually compiler errors which I parsed so this wouldn't really be affected after all

[WebFreak001]

there is now a proposed API in VSCode insiders so I am finally able to do this: https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_47#_terminal-link-provider

It might still change and won't be usable for normal users at least before 1.48 though.
