[perl #125674] [LTA] error message prints wrong eject position (if True if { };)

2017-10-06 Thread Aleks-Daniel Jakimenko-Aleksejev via RT 
This one is a bit harder than it seems.

So here is what throws:
https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/f62ae60c48d1372df18b49aca44e10af44ead2d6/src/Perl6/Grammar.nqp#L315

However, the cursor has wrong position for some reason. Looking at the lines
above, it may seem that doing this:

self.'!cursor_pos'($pos);

should fix the problem… but it doesn't! $pos variable is set correctly, but
!cursor_pos does absolutely nothing. In fact, you can try setting it to 0 or
any other value, no effect whatsoever.

This suggests that the use of !cursor_pos in the same method does not work too.
What is the right way to set the cursor?

And why does the cursor even have the incorrect value there?

As a bonus, this line seems to be unreachable:
self.missing("block (taken by some undeclared routine?)");

I tried various things but nothing can trigger it. I found (via google) some
code snippets that used to result in this error message, but nowadays it simply
says “Missing block”. I bisected that change to

Should be fixed in https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/5747bc7121

Testneeded. Slightly relevant tests here:

Does not seem to be fixed at all. But I've added some todo-ed tests:

[perl #125674] LTA error message prints wrong eject position: if True if { };

Code:
if True if { };

===SORRY!=== Error while compiling ./test.pl
Missing block
at ./test.pl:3
--> if True if ⏏{ };

Clearly the block is there. It seems like it expects a block before the
second "if", but the cursor is placed incorrectly. STD gets it right:

15:03:25 std: if True if { };
15:03:26 std 28329a7: OUTPUT«===SORRY!===␤Missing block at
  /tmp/XbS0PJUJZo line 1:␤--> if True ⏏if { };␤Parse
  failed␤FAILED 00:00 135m␤»

Similar problem with "unless", "while" and maybe some others.
