Subject: Improve the error report of format
Date: Thu, 18 Apr 2024 11:52:34 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87o7a7f115.fsf@runbox.eu> (raw)
Background: I am currently trying to find out where an error "Format
specifier doesn't match argument type" is coming from. It's a bit of a
mystery, so I thought, hey, this could be a lot easier if the error
message includes the format string that it is trying to print! That way
it would be a simple search across a codebase.
TL;DR: can format's error message include the input string?
Thanks,
Martin
