and running

/cc @Araq after a (painful... wish I had nim-lang/Nim#8276 ) reduction I get something without any imports:

timotheecour · 2018-11-03T08:18:59Z

indeed... but when I simplify a bit further, nim check still gives internal error (see nim-lang/Nim#9609) but

echo "sug bugs/nimsuggest/t01d.nim:3:6" | $nimc_D/bin/nimsuggest --stdin bugs/nimsuggest/t01d.nim
doesn't give internal error anymore:

macro mapLiterals(a: untyped): untyped =
  echo a.kind
mapLiterals(0)

instead it (strangely, is that a bug?) gives all the symbols; EDIT: I'm reporting this particular bug here: #99

timotheecour · 2018-11-15T01:04:54Z

@nc-x

nim check also fails on the snippet -

so nim check wasn't related to this issue : now that nim-lang/Nim#9609 was fixed, nim check bugs/nimsuggest/t01c.nim doesn't crash anymore (just gives normal errors), but the bugs are still there for nimsuggest

narimiran · 2019-03-28T13:55:41Z

I couldn't reproduce the sigsegv with v0.19.9, neither with nimusggest nor with nim check.

nc-x · 2019-03-29T11:49:17Z

@narimiran
Sequtils changed between then and now. Use this old sequtils with current nimsuggest. It crashes. So the crash is related to some code in sequtils.

saem · 2021-01-10T02:00:27Z

Even with the old sequtils, I can no longer reproduce this with the latest nimsuggest.

I don't think it's worth keeping this open unless someone can reproduce it.

timotheecour · 2021-01-10T09:02:13Z

I can no longer reproduce this

@saem if possible, you could add reduced case #93 (comment) as a regression test case
