I wish there was a way to give a mixin some kind of identity
like:
mixin("mymixin", "somecode");
Where an error message would print something like:
Error in mixin("mymixin"): ...
[...]
mixin("#line 1 \"mymixin\"\n" ~ "somecode;");
/* mymixin(1): Error: undefined identifier somecode */
[...]
I don't see how the #line will help because you don't know
which mixin the line would be associated with as they can come
in any order.
I don't follow. It's not about setting the line number. The
point is setting the source file name to "mymixin".
You asked for a way associate a name with a string mixin, and
have that name included in errors. As far as I see, `#line`
lets you do that.
Note how the error message in my example shows "mymixin".
Oh, I'm sorry I didn't notice that, my bad.
I guess adding that would be the equivalent to what my proposal
is.
I'll give it a try and come back
