Knowing the error line number in CIW window

Vishaljha

Hello,

I loaded a skill code file "xyz.il" in CIW window which has some set of functions defined.

However, when the code encounters error in one the function, I can't find the error line number in CIW window. Is it possible to know at what line error has occurred?

Thank you,

VJ 

  • Hi VJ,

    Here are the usual SKILL settings I use for debug

    ;; Set debug options
(sstatus debugMode         t  ) ; use debug mode
(sstatus traceArgs         t  ) ; display functions arguments in stack trace
(sstatus stacktrace        15 ) ; stack trace 15 levels
(sstatus stacktraceDump    t  ) ; print environment (local variables) in stack trace
(setq    tracelength       50 ) ; otherwise trace displays reduced lists (using ...)
(setq    _stacktrace       50 )
(sstatus sourceTracing     t  ) ; Try to point errors to the file and line they happen (for files loaded in debugMode)
(sstatus profCount         t  ) ; Count the number of calls per function when profiling
(sstatus verboseLoad       t  ) ; Print full path of loaded files in CIW
(sstatus verboseNamespace  t  ) ; Enable printing of warnings related to SKILL namespaces

    Cheers,

    Also, if you use the SKILL IDE, the debugger will show you the line in the code where an error occurs, and you'll also be able to inspect the values of local variables when the error occurs.
