#1181: Parameter file parsing error message is hidden
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
Reporter: eschnett | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone:
Component: Cactus | Version:
Keywords: |
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
Parse errors in parameter files are hidden among other output, and are
thus difficult to spot. This example shows this:
{{{
cactus::cctk_itlast = 3 ;
ActiveThorns = "HDF5"
}}}
The problem is that the error message is output among the activation
messages. If the parameter file is long and the syntax error is in the
beginning, then several hundred lines may be output after the error
message, which makes it very difficult to spot it.
The parsing errors should be output in the same way as other parameter
errors, which are prefixed by WARNING etc.
