Hi Edson,
I think we are actually in agreement here as the ProblemTypes could easily
be renamed to Severity instead..
I will have to think through how to expose the different message types that
should be possible to override.
Kind Regards
Mikael

Hi Mikael,
One idea would be to define severities for compilation messages... could
be 1..3, could be INFO, WARN, ERROR, etc. Each problem would have a default
priority and in an ideal world, the user could override this priority (like
you can do it in eclipse). So, for instance, a rule update could have a
default severity of INFO, but if the user does not use dynamic rule updates,
he would be able to define it as severity ERROR.
ERRORS would always prevent execution, while warnings and infos would be
reported, but not prevent usage.
This is my opinion would be a great step forward compared to what we
have today.
What do you think?
Thanks,
Edson
