followup for #13351
this helped a lot when doing the code reduction in #14340 (comment)
before PR:
at devel 0b7847b:
before PR, with debug nim
after recompiling nim with
--stacktrace:on --stacktracemsgs -d:nimCompilerStackraceHints
=> gives 0 indication of what part of the code being cgen'd causes the error
after PR
after recompiling nim with
--stacktrace:on --stacktracemsgs -d:nimCompilerStackraceHints
=> now we know its' inside this:
/Users/timothee/git_clone/nim/temp/nimPoP/src/nimPoP/opl3.nim(657, 16) nkSym
, and also mroe this is called from, etcfuture work
-d:nimCompilerStackraceHints
to a few more key strategic placesconf.isDefined
instead ofdefined
so that we don't need to recompile nim just to getnimCompilerStackraceHints
enabled (as long as nim was already compiled with--stacktrace:on --stacktracemsgs
)
