When trying to compile something with GDC,
any errors encountered go to the stdout -
instead of the stderr like they should do.
This confuses the hell out of the assembler,
if trying to use the -pipe option to pass it
directly from the gdc frontend to as assembler.
# gdc -c typo.d
typo.d:2: no identifier for declarator typo
typo.d:2: semicolon expected, not 'EOF'
# gdc -c -pipe typo.d
{standard input}:0:End-of-File not at end of a line
{standard input}:1:Invalid mnemonic 'no'
{standard input}:1:End-of-File not at end of a line
{standard input}:unknown:Partial line at end of file ignored
They should go stderr, like they do with gcc:
# gcc -c typo.c
typo.c:1: error: parse error at end of input
# gcc -c -pipe typo.c
typo.c:1: error: parse error at end of input

This is a problem with DMD, not just GDC. It's been addressed before and a fix provided digitalmars.D.bugs/2001 digitalmars.D.bugs/3170 but AFAIK still waiting to be checked in. Stewart. -- My e-mail is valid but not my primary mailbox. Please keep replies on the 'group where everyone may benefit.

But that was with uncaught exceptions, right ? This was output from the GDC compiler itself... But you are right, they should both go to stderr. (both the uncaught Errors, and the compile errors) --anders

This bug is still present in GDC 0.11 :-( Unfortunately it pretty much rules out using "-pipe", which otherwise gives a nice speedup. --anders
