Purescript: Store warnings in externs?
Maybe this was discussed before, I can't remember. Just thinking it'd be nice to have, since then warnings could always be shown regardless of whether the build is incremental or not.
I know -psa has --stash to implement this on top of the compiler interface, but it's not completely reliable, so by storing in the externs we'd only have one set of cache invalidation related bugs to deal with. :wink:

Why is it desirable to display warnings generated from modules you didn't compile though? For a batch mode compiler, that seems kind of odd to me.

Yeah, maybe, I dunno. It鈥檚 just tedious having to wait a couple of minutes to get the warnings back every time.
The warnings are still relevant whether the files were changed or not too - the state that the project is in is still questionable.
