Error and Warning System Overview
Overview
The compiler uses a structured diagnostic system with four severity levels:
| Severity | Behavior |
|---|---|
| error | Compilation fails. Must be fixed before artifacts can be generated. |
| warning | Compilation succeeds, but the issue should be reviewed. Can be promoted to error with --Werror. |
| info | Informational note. Does not affect compilation. |
| hint | Suggestion for improvement. Does not affect compilation. |
Each diagnostic includes:
- A numeric error code (format
E<NNNN>) - A human-readable message
- Source location (file, line, column) when available
- Optional fix suggestions
