x/tools/gopls: doesn't seem to vet text output formatting errors in non-core packages #34059

Description

@urisimchoni

This may be related to #33085, but #33085 and its discussion seem to be focused on circular dependencies.

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

$ go version
go version go1.12.7 linux/amd64

gopls version
golang.org/x/tools/gopls v0.1.2
    golang.org/x/tools/gopls@v0.1.3 h1:CB5ECiPysqZrwxcyRjN+exyZpY0gODTZvNiqQi3lpeo=

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

I don't know - I believe gopls is latest.

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

What did you do?

Using VS-Code, with language server (gopls) enabled, write a small program such as the following and save it:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"io"

	"github.com/pkg/errors"
)

func main() {
	err := errors.Wrapf(io.EOF, "foo %s", 5)
	fmt.Printf("Err is %s\n", err)
}

What did you expect to see?

A warning "Wrapf format %s has arg 5 of wrong type int"

What did you see instead?

  • No errors or warnings reported.
  • Doing a "go vet" generates this warning.
  • A similar error on fmt package is flagged.

Gopls trace:

(this trace is generated when deleting a space that had intentionally created a syntax error, thereby making the code syntax-error-free, but with this formatting error)
