Re: quickfix / clist question

Hi Ben,

Thanks!.

You answer pointed me into the right direction.

by setting the errorformat correctly, the error disapeared.

Rgds,

Vim must parse the output of your compiler to extract things that look
like errors. Vim does this by trying each line to see if it matches with
any of the entries in the 'errorformat' option. For some reason, you
"Start time: 13" line is matching one of these entries (I don't
immediately see which entry by looking at the default value, but maybe
you aren't using the default value).

To prevent this, you must find or create a set of 'errorformat' strings
that actually match your compiler, instead of relying on Vim's defaults.

Once you have an appropriate option value, the best thing to do is to
place this setting *and* your 'makeprg' setting into a compiler plugin,
so that you simply do this to compile:

  :compiler vcom
  :make

See the following topics:
  :help compiler-plugin
  :help compiler-select
