Henrik Lindberg commented on PUP-8127   Re: Refactor error locations strings to not use words for better I18n support How about something like this? (Brackets are more distinctive than parentheses IMO), and ':' is only used when there is something to delimit, and pos is never on its own. (I shortened the message in the examples to make them not be truncated in the ticket. Also did not end with '.' or '?' (many errors do not have ending punctuation.) Error: Something went wrong [/Users/eric.delaney/work/my_repos/puppet/foo.pp:1:9] Error: Something went wrong [/Users/eric.delaney/work/my_repos/puppet/foo.pp:1] Error: Something went wrong [1:9] Error: Something went wrong [1] The messages without file are rare and then there is usually no line or pos either, because error is not related to one particular file. Missing information is most often the result when running tests, or when the puppet code comes from the command line or Puppet[:code] setting. We could fix those to use a symbolic name instead of a filename (this is done in some places so the file is shown as <unknown> or similar). No overall approach has been taken to this, I think this could be improved upon but requires some thought and digging into the various forms of errors.
