340a97f0&showmsg=1'>Expand)Author 2020-01-16records: Improve reporting of "invalid field specifier" errors....Previously users would just see: error: invalid field specifier without source location or hints. * guix/records.scm (expand): Add optional 'parent-form' parameter and pass it to 'syntax-violation' when it is true. (make-syntactic-constructor): Pass S as a third argument to 'report-invalid-field-specifier'. * guix/ui.scm (report-load-error): For 'syntax-error', show SUBFORM or FORM in the message. * tests/records.scm ("define-record-type* & wrong field specifier"): Add a 'subform' parameter and adjust test accordingly. ("define-record-type* & wrong field specifier, identifier"): New test. * tests/guix-system.sh: Add test. Ludovic Courtès
