 [feature/native-comp] Warnings from async compilations truncated
Date: Tue, 09 Mar 2021 19:47:06 +0200

When an async native-compilation is running, some warning messages
emitted by the compilation are truncated.  Example:

  Warning (comp): seq.el:396:16: Warning: `seq-contains' is an obsolete generic function (as of Disable showing Disable logging

Note the truncation after "(as of".

Why does this happen? can it be fixed?

ATM we capture each Warning (or error) with the following regexp:
"^.*+?\\(?:Error\\|Warning\\): .*$"

So I expect we match the full line (if is a multi line diagnostic we'll
loose what's following).

The matched string is passed directly to `display-warning'.  I don't
know if we have same machinery cutting lines that are considered too
long.

Thanks

The message comes from a sub-process, right?  Could it be that we
match prematurely, when only part of the text was received?

Yes

That's possible, just before using the regexp we call
`accept-process-output' on the process, I thought this was sufficient to
handle the case but I'm no expert into this area.

I think I see the problem: it's nothing as complicated as that.

Here's what the original warning looks like:

 seq.el:396:16: Warning: `seq-contains' is an obsolete generic function (as of
     27.1); use `seq-contains-p' instead.

There's an actual newline at the end of the first line, because by
default we _fill_ the text.

So I think the solution should be to bind (in the sub-process which
performs the actual compilation) warning-fill-column to a large
number.

Is there a similar issue with error messages?

Nice, is 256 a reasonable number?

> Is there a similar issue with error messages?

Yes, we suffer from the same issue if the Error is emitted with new
lines.

How about most-positive-fixnum?

But is there a similar variable to bind in that case? fill-column,
perhaps?

Sounds good, fe1c081c38 does that.

Dunno, I'll make some tests if we don't get a precise suggestion.

With 0144764d1d error reporting appears to be working for me.

I had no problems with line truncations but I had to tweak the way we
are printing them (before we emitted always the full backtrace) so now
we can parse them and report to the user correctly.

My testcase is to signal and error with a very long message within an
`eval-when-compile' and I see it now reported entirely in the
"*Async-native-compile-log*".

Please let me know if you have some other suggestion on how to test
this.

Thanks
