[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #57159] warning missing-semicolon reports line -1 and column -1 for an array

[Rik]

Update of bug #57159 (project octave):

                Severity:              3 - Normal => 1 - Wish               
                Priority:              5 - Normal => 3 - Low                
              Item Group:         Feature Request => Inaccurate Result      
                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
                 Release:                   5.1.0 => dev

Follow-up Comment #1:

Confirmed.  I have uploaded a new example file "f2.m" which I used to
reproduce the result.  The contents of f2.m are


function f1()
[a]
endfunction


Running the code with the latest development branch shows


run-octave -f -q
octave:1> warning ("on", "Octave:missing-semicolon");
octave:2> f2
warning: missing semicolon near line -1, column -1 in file
'/home/rik/wip/Projects_Mine/octave-dev/f2.m'
warning: function name 'f1' does not agree with function filename
'/home/rik/wip/Projects_Mine/octave-dev/f2.m'
error: 'a' undefined near line 2, column 2
error: called from
    f2


So some reporting, such as 'a' undefined', correctly identifies the line
number, while the missing semicolon warning does not.
