I'm working on a program with some 433 lines of perl code.
Some where in the course of editing today I've run up on an error that
I need some way to debug.
the code includes
use diagnostics;
And the message I get when I try to run it:
Missing right curly or square bracket at ./nms2.pl line 433, at end
of line syntax error at ./nms2.pl line 433, at EOF Execution of
./nms2.pl aborted due to compilation errors (#1)
(F) The lexer counted more opening curly or square brackets than
closing ones. As a general rule, you'll find it's missing near
the place you were last editing.
Uncaught exception from user code:
Missing right curly or square bracket at ./nms2.pl line 433,
at end of line syntax error at ./nms2.pl line 433, at EOF Execution
of ./nms2.pl aborted due to compilation errors. at ./nms2.pl line
433
I've found over time that one or another of my editors will spot a
missmatched syntax element with its syntax coloring.
Either Emacs in cperl mode or vim always helps find something like
this.
This time I can find no lapse in the coloring, and taking the advice
given I don't find it by hand. However I've sort of lost track of
what all I may have edited today. But stepping thru the 433 lines I
just don't see it.
Using `strict' finds numerous things to complain about but its all
about global symbols which I use sort of poorly. And I'm sure even if
the script ran `Strict' would find all the same stuff to holler about.
