25.1; byte-compile warning indicates wrong line |
Date: |
Mon, 03 Oct 2016 10:18:25 +0900 |
Let the contents of the file "tmp.el" be:
(defun test (files)
(and t (string-match 1))
(and t (string-match 1 2)))
Then input M-x byte-compile-file RET tmp.el RET
*Compile-Log* buffer shows:
In test:
tmp.el:3:11:Warning: string-match called with 1 argument, but requires 2-3
The warning must indicate the line 2.
