Error messages not showing correctly #43

Open D0048 opened 7 years ago

D0048 commented 7 years ago

Expected behavior

The error messages like these:

    if v:shell_error != 0
        echo 'Failed to compile'
        lcd -
        return

could show normally.

Actual behavior

These messages just blink and disappear.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Use any document that may trigger an error. (like the "Failed to compile" one above)
  2. Start preview.
  3. Nothing happened and the error message blinks and disappear within milliseconds.

D0048 commented 7 years ago

Add: After adding the following code at the beginning of the s:StartPreview(...) function, like this:

...
function! s:StartPreview(...)
    echo 'dummy'
    lcd -
    "The above 2 lines must exist for any error message to show.
    let b:livepreview_buf_data = {}
    ...

The error message will appear. Don't know why thou.

badouralix commented 7 years ago

Hi @D0048! Thanks for reporting!

I haven't successfully reproduced your bug on Huge version without GUI... Maybe it is related to your Huge version with GTK2-GNOME GUI (but then I wouldn't know why...) What kind of other plugins are you using? :scriptnames to figure it out

badouralix commented 7 years ago

Did you figure out what was happening? By disabling other plugins for instance

D0048 commented 7 years ago

It's not the air-line plugin. But this is probably a conflict with some other plugins since it works after I disabled all of them. Consider I don't yet have time to try to exclude each script one by one, For any of whom encountered similar issues, try adding an output like this to the beginning of the StartPreview function like this:

...
function! s:StartPreview(...)
    echo 'Starting'
    lcd -
    "The above 2 lines must exist for any error message to show.
    ...
