Background
#1167 updated
compileContentsto use a promisify'd version ofchild_process.execFile.As mentioned in the execFile docs, it returns a rejected promise on non-zero exit codes:
However,
compileContentsassumes thatexecFilereturns a resolved promise on non-zero exits:rescript-vscode/server/src/incrementalCompilation.ts
Lines 711 to 715 in adf96f7
and so ends up rethrowing this error (line 766):
rescript-vscode/server/src/incrementalCompilation.ts
Lines 757 to 767 in adf96f7
In turn, this makes the extension crash.
Fix
I added a
.catchto check iferror.stderris non-empty, and if so return that. Otherwise, we throw the error so that we don't accidentally swallow e.g. ENOENT errors.
