10121 :: how to set hint/warningAsError switches in config.nims?

• noah (orginal) [2023-04-22T12:08:33+02:00] view original

  in somepackge/config.nims i want to set

  --hintAsError:Performance:on
  --hintAsError:XDeclaredButNotUsed:on
  --warningAsError:GcUnsafe:on
  Run

  however, running the the tests throws

  
  /home/poop/git/foss/bookofnim/config.nims(1, 2) Error: 'on' or 'off' expected, but 'Performance:
    on' found
  Run

  is there another way to provide these flags without setting on the cmdline?

  That's probably: switch("hintAsError", "Performance:off"). There are versions of switch for hint and warning but nothing for hintAsError. https://nim-lang.github.io/Nim/nimscript.html#hint%2Cstring%2Cbool

  thanks @planetis

  I triend with warningAsError and it worked too ;)

  switch("hintAsError", "Performance:on")
  switch("hintAsError", "XDeclaredButNotUsed:on")
  switch("warningAsError", "GcUnsafe:on")
  Run
