Currently when you import std.c.windows.windows on a non-Windows machine, the
file and line number of std/c/windows/windows.d is returned due to a static
assert(0).

This is great and all, but it would be really nice to have the file and line
number of the importer. I don't know of how to improve this. Maybe an
improvement to DMD so that a module that is imported and has a static assert(0)
results in the importer file and line being used?

More generally, it may useful to have an error message for failed imports that
shows the file name and line number of the module that contains the import
statement.

you might want to try dmd -v.  It shows imports in the order they were
imported.  It doesn't show the file which imports it, but you can get a good
idea probably from the prior file list.

I'd say adding the file imported from would be a good thing to add to -v.

Created an attachment (id=812)
PATCH against rev 755: implement a module import backtrace for static assert

Implements a module import back-trace for static asserts.

This ought to be implemented for non-static asserts as well,
but that probably involves mucking about in the back end
and I can't be bothered diving into that at the mo.

Cool! In cases where it's imported from inside a static if, this is fantastic. Ideally, it would only do the module trace starting from the last instantiated template. (Which would mean that in many cases, it wouldn't appear at all). I think this should be applied to all template instantiation back traces.

You expect wrong.

Okay. Sorry. It's just that normally no one posts directly to the list and any comments posted directly to the list probably won't get seen in the long run, since people will generally look at the bug reports directly. - Jonathan M Davis

modified patch so it doesn't print module back trace when inside a template,
the template instantiation trace already gets printed.

...and printing the correct import location might help
