I don't understand this issue. This should always be a compile-time failure, not a "hint".

kitech commented 5 years ago

I want to know where exactly raise the exception when this message show. I think switch hints=on will show more verbose info.

Looking at the code for that switch: https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/blob/79c721d41814b4ec5f5c6e32c2093125cb41258c/compiler/sempass2.nim#L900-L904

I doubt you'll get what you want with it on.
