Original bug ID: 6815
Reporter: @dbuenzli
Status: resolved (set by @damiendoligez on 2017-03-01T13:17:47Z)
Resolution: won't fix
Priority: normal
Severity: feature
Version: 4.02.1
Category: emacs mode

Bug description

Sometimes you may get transient warnings when you comment out things/do refactorings.

In this cases one of the annoyance is that when you have errors in your sources the compiler doesn't report errors before warnings so when you use things like emacs' compilation mode to jump around your sources you have to jump over all the warnings before getting to the error which can be annoying.

Actually a legitimate comment here may be that it is emacs' compilation mode that is broken. From an HCI point of view giving feedback as soon as possible is the right thing to do.

I.e. I don't think the compiler is the right place to solve this problem. Please close this.

We should probably keep it open as a feature wish for the emacs mode.

I don't think this can be implemented in the emacs mode without major work, since we are relying on emacs' infrastructure to handle errors.
