Yes PR#226 is specific for C/C++ warnings and that too for gcc like compiler error messages for c/cpp which has 'warning' keyword in line_idx+2, for all other languages (other than C/C++) the PR is harmless, it falls back to the behavior geany has now, show red squiggly line irrespective of warning or error. I can do that for other programming languages too, but I am not sure whether people programming in those languages like to see different coloring scheme for warning and error. I have not changed the regex parser because I am still trying to find how regex parsing of compiler errors works in geany, its taking longer than I expected. Last and least, pull request #191 and SF patch #11 are earlier than > #226. If one of them is applied, #226 will be seriously broken. > I had no idea about these PRs. Thanks for pointing this out. I will check them. But we already discussed all this. Why do you insist on #226 in it's > current form? > So I guess what you are trying to suggest is: 1. Generalize the behavior for all the programming languages supported by geany. I have to find out which languages generate warning messages and which dont, this may take some time. 2. Remove the hard coding of line_idx+2 3. Make changes for both regex parsing as well as older parsing method If I make these changes, will then you merge the PR? Or Do I need to do more changes? Please feel free to give me feedback. I am new to geany development and I am primarily use geany for C++/Python programming so I am very biased towards these languages and might miss the bigger picture. Thanks, Shankhoneer Chakrovarty
