Description

New ticket opened from comment on list in thread 'Re: Warnings on Solaris, Pmc2c usage/design bug', from Andrew Johnson.


BTW, there is a fundamental problem with this very common usage of a Parrot::Pmc2c::Emitter:

$e->emit( <<"END", FILE, LINE + 1 ); ... code ... END

In the above usage, LINE returns the line number of the line containing the "END" marker, not that of the line containing the "emit" call, so the #line directive it emits points to the wrong place in the source file.

The first post in that thread can be found  here.

... and this passage occurs in well into the thread  here.
