Description

Implement build error diagnostics and enhanced compiler output for better debugging and development experience.

Part of

Changes

  • Add build-error-diagnostics.sh for enhanced error reporting
  • Add xcode-build-wrapper.sh for compiler output enhancement
  • Add ci-validation.sh for CI configuration validation
  • Add build-parallel.sh for parallel module building
  • Update Makefile with diagnostic flags and error filtering

Testing

  • Build diagnostics work when running 'make build'
  • Error filtering improves readability
  • Parallel builds reduce compile time
  • CI validation catches configuration issues

Dependencies

Files Changed

  • scripts/build-error-diagnostics.sh (new)

  • Makefile (modified)

Next Steps

After this PR is merged, subsequent PRs will add:

  1. Code quality tools (linting, validation)
  2. Periphery integration for unused code detection
  3. Source code fixes for compilation errors

Pull Request Overview

This PR implements build error diagnostics and enhanced compiler output tools for better debugging and development experience. It introduces sophisticated error reporting, module-aware diagnostics, and build enhancement scripts.

  • Add comprehensive build error diagnostics with module-aware error formatting and recovery suggestions
  • Implement Xcode build wrapper for enhanced compiler output with visual indicators and contextual hints
  • Create CI validation script for GitHub workflows, tool availability, and basic security checks

  • Similar to the password check, this API key detection pattern may produce false positives. Consider checking for actual string values rather than just the pattern, and exclude configuration files or known safe contexts.

The function uses bash arithmetic operations on potentially uninitialized associative array elements. This will fail when the module key doesn't exist yet. Initialize array elements to 0 before incrementing: ERROR_COUNTS[$module]=${ERROR_COUNTS[$module]:-0}; ((ERROR_COUNTS[$module]++))

PIPESTATUS may not contain the expected compiler exit code due to the pipeline structure. The exit code captured here could be from tee or the while loop instead of the actual compiler. Consider restructuring to capture the compiler exit code more reliably, such as running the compiler separately and then processing its output.

Suggested change
"$COMPILER" "$@" 2>&1 | tee "$TEMP_OUTPUT" | while IFS= read -r line; do
enhance_error "$line"
done
# Get the compiler exit code
COMPILER_EXIT_CODE=${PIPESTATUS[0]}
"$COMPILER" "$@" > "$TEMP_OUTPUT" 2>&1
COMPILER_EXIT_CODE=$?
# Process the compiler output
while IFS= read -r line; do
enhance_error "$line"
done < "$TEMP_OUTPUT"

The script checks for 'UIScreenshots' as a unit test target, but this appears to be incorrect. UIScreenshots sounds like a UI testing target, not a unit test target. This will give misleading validation results about test coverage.

echo "Unit Tests target found"

echo "⚠️ Unit Tests target not found"
echo "UI Screenshots target found"

The pipeline redirects stderr to stdout and then processes it through the diagnostics script, but this may interfere with xcpretty's ability to properly format and colorize the output. Consider whether xcpretty should come before or after the diagnostics script, or if both stdout and stderr need separate handling.
