CHANGES
=======
[section="Improved WML load error reports"]
The user interface used for displaying WML errors during the content load and initialization phase (also known as “[i]Reading files and creating cache[/i]”) has received a complete makeover in this version:
[list]
[*]The list of affected add-ons in the summary is now displayed in a bulleted format when applicable, and add-ons are identified by their regular names (or approximations thereof when those are unavailable) instead of the complete paths to their [tt]_main.cfg[/tt] files.
[*]Users are encouraged to report any errors found to the add-on authors or maintainers. A new button is available above the detailed report to copy it to clipboard, e.g., for including it in a forum post without having to upload large screenshots or checking stderr.
[*]Parser implementation details (specifically, “value [i]token[/i] at [i]location[/i]”) are no longer included in the report since they dont really help WML authors with debugging.
[*]Error messages that point to chains of file and line locations have those displayed in separate indented lines to avoid the “text wall” effect.
[/list]
Additionally, the format used for logging these errors to stderr has changed:
[list]
[*]Messages for errors from multiple add-ons are now sent to stderr one by one as they happen, rather than printed all at once at the end of the loading phase.
[*]The indented format used in the UI is used in stderr now as well.
