Dynamic Error Handling Tool

Komal Patel, Harshita C. Kanani · 2013

in any programming language, error messages perform very important role between system (program development tool) and programmer. For novice programmers, it is very difficult to understand these error messages as they have not enough knowledge of grammars or syntax of languages. We propose solution to this problem by developing a new tool which works as post compiler for GCC. Proposed tool presented in this paper enhances the error handling phase of compiler by making error messages more users friendly and provide hints to solve the errors. Proposed tool keeps track of errors generated by compiler and updates predefined error hint file based on observing error correction, thus providing dynamic error message representation (1). Index Terms—GCC, Error Handling, Compiler, Post Compiler.
