OK, I did this: Made a factory class for my class: TextgenTemplate * textgen_template_parser_parse (TextgenTemplateParser *parser, ..., GError **error); TextgenLocation * textgen_template_parser_get_error_location (TextgenTemplateParser *parser); And also added get_error_location to TextgenTemplate itself: void textgen_template_run (TextgenTemplate *tpl, ..., GError **error); TextgenLocation * textgen_template_get_error_location (TextgenTemplate *tpl); Is it an OK way to report error locations? _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
