You can write a regex for what you need in the "Error regular
expression" text box in the Build Commands configuration. I think you
can also store the regexp in the `filetype.yourlanguage` file.

Yes, I was aware of this. As I said, *i was reading the [build-menu]*.
The question was: how to distinguish errors from warnings and notices? I
would like Geany to display errors in red, warnings in blue and notices
in green. Is that possible? Unfortunately, the link you sent says
nothing about this.
I have also read
http://www.geany.org/manual/hacking.html#error-message-parsing which says:
New-style error message parsing is done with an extended GNU-style
regex stored in the filetypes.foo file - see the [build_settings]
information in the manual for details.
But it is not very helpful, since the manual on [build_settings] does
not tell how to do it. (Or maybe there are two versions of that
documentation and I'm looking at the wrong place?)
It looks like there's a lot of hardcoded stuff in `msgwindow.c`.
Hi Matthew,
Yeah, history was that Geany originally had coded recognition of
"standard" error messages from a few "well known" compilers, but those
tricky compiler writers either were non-standard (clang and its ^) or
changed their message formats between versions (hi Python) so regexen
were introduced to allow users to tailor the recognition without
programming, but the old method was left for users who couldn't/didn't
want to change the regexes.
So we could be using simple regexps in the default filetypes.* files
instead of hundreds of lines of hand-parsing code and we don't?
Cheers,
Matthew Brush
