Currently, Chanterelle only throws a compilation error and fails if there is no compiler artifact for the module being compiled. In most cases (e.g., syntax errors, missing dependencies,
pragma solidity
vs compiler version mismatch) this is perfectly fine. However, there are certain classes of error which can give a "partial" artifact (i.e., has an ABI, but no bytecode). One such case is when you have more stack variables than the EVM can support. (try declaring 20 localbytes memory
variables at the start of the case). In this case, there's nothing wrong with the Solidity code per se. The compiler can produce an ABI, source map, etc. for it -- it just can't produce EVM-compatible bytecode for it.What would happen currently is that the errors wouldn't get logged, and you'd get a mysterious "Compiler output lacked an
evm
field". This change improves error logging and causes compilation to fail if any kind of error (i.e., with solidity severity >WARNING) is reported for a module.
