Hi all,
When I compile a program with a duplicate $R
directive fpc (2.6.4) gives an error. Unlike other error messages this
error is written to stderr (under Linux and OS X).
Running fpc in a shell seems to always work. The output/stdout and
stderr are both written nicely together.
But when the stderr is redirected (e.g. fpc test.pas 2> errors.txt)
then errors.txt is empty and the stderr error message is lost. And
depending on the quantity of output/stdout some output bytes in front
of the error are missing too.
The same happens when running fpc via TProcess (with or without
poStdErrToOutput).
Is it a bug in fpc or in ppcx64 or in fpcres?
Here is an example:
debugressourcestderrbug.pas:
program debugressourcestderrbug;
{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
uses
Classes, SysUtils;
{$R debugressourcestderrbug.lfm}
{$R debugressourcestderrbug.lfm}
begin
writeln;
end.
debugressourcestderrbug.lfm:
object Form1: TForm1
Left = 337
end
------------------------------------------
Running in terminal:
fpc debugressourcestderrbug.pas
...snip...
Compiling debugressourcestderrbug.pas
Compiling resource debugressourcestderrbug.or
Error: Duplicate resource: Type = 10, Name = TFORM1, Lang ID = 0000
debugressourcestderrbug.pas(23,1) Error: Error while compiling resources
...snap...
------------------------------------------
Running in terminal with stderr redirect:
fpc debugressourcestderrbug.pas 2> error.txt
...snip...
Compiling debugressourcestderrbug.pas
Compiling resource debugressourcestderrbug.or
debugressourcestderrbug.pas(23,1) Error: Error while compiling resources
...snap...
error.txt is empty.
