…NFC] This patch is the first patch in a series reworking of Pete Lawrence's (@PortalPete) amazing proposal for better expression evaluator error messages (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/80938) This patch is preparatory patch for improving the rendering of expression evaluator diagnostics. Currently diagnostics are rendered into a string and the command interpreter layer then textually parses words like "error:" to (sometimes) color the output accordingly. In order to enable user interfaces to do better with diagnostics, we need to store them in a machine-readable fromat. This patch does this by adding a new llvm::Error kind wrapping a DiagnosticDetail struct that is used when the error type is eErrorTypeExpression. Multiple diagnostics are modeled using llvm::ErrorList. Right now the extra information is not used by the CommandInterpreter, this will be added in a follow-up patch!
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
