IMO those should be moved into a separate directory, intended for such warnings. > What about adding > > #(ly:warning (_ "Expect one warning")) > > to files where a warning is expected? The last time this was suggested (about 5 years ago?), somebody (maybe Han-Wen?) pointed out that #(ly:warning ...) would be processed during the parsing stage, whereas most warnings occurred during the engraving stage. In a file with multiple expected warnings, they wouldn't match up nicely. The idea was dropped. I personally would like some functions to print output at the relevant stage: #(ly:warning_parser (_ "blah")) #(ly:warning_translator (_ "blah")) #(ly:warning_event_class (_ "blah")) #(ly:warning_engraver (_ "blah")) #(ly:warning_performer (_ "blah")) #(ly:warning_whatever_else_we_have (_ "blah")) (or not necessarily "warning"; just a "print_during" -- it would actually be useful for one of my research projects!) I'd feel better about decorating regtests if we could truly target the message to the warning. (I still think that most regtests should produce no warnings, and any exception should be in a different directory) Cheers, - Graham _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
