Simple Suggestion...
« on: July 31, 2005, 09:21:42 am »
In linux, my g++ ( g++ (GCC) 3.3.5-20050130 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.5.20050130-r1, ssp-3.3.5.20050130-1, pie-8.7.7.1) ) man page says:
Quote
       -fmessage-length=n
           Try to format error messages so that they fit on lines of about n
           characters.  The default is 72 characters for g++ and 0 for the
           rest of the front ends supported by GCC.  If n is zero, then no
           line-wrapping will be done; each error message will appear on a
           single line.

As such, I suggest you add "-fmessage-length=0" as a default flag for the gcc compiler, since your error-finding regexps don't work very well when the error messages wrap.

That's why it's a flag in the C::B project file :)
But, you 're right. Maybe it should be set as default for gcc...

Yiannis.
Be patient!
This bug will be fixed soon...
