Hello,

I am still working on integrating idl in a custom testing framework.
Now I need to find an equivalent to a 'compilation stage' for idl.

For example this code cannot run, it contains a 'Syntax error':

$ cat broken.pro
print 'Hello World'

Unfortunately idl does not seems to returns with an error when
compiling it:

$ echo broken | idl
print 'Hello World'
^
% Syntax error.
At: /home/mathieu/Projects/FarSight/Testing/broken.pro, Line 1

% End of file encountered before end of program.
At: /home/mathieu/Projects/FarSight/Testing/broken.pro, Line 3
% Compiled module: BROKEN.
% Attempt to call undefined procedure/function: 'BROKEN'.
% Execution halted at: $MAIN$

$ echo $?
0


Is there a way to compile this program so that idl actually return to
the parent process an error occur ?

Thanks
Mathieu
