// INVALID FILE — used to test the Nova issue matcher.
//
// Open this file and run it with the "Current Zig File" task (zig run).
// The compiler will report an error that the issue matcher captures:
//
//   error-example.zig:16:23: error: type 'u8' cannot represent integer value '300'
//
// This verifies that the regexp  ^(.+?):(\d+):(\d+):\s*(error|warning):\s*(.+)$
// correctly extracts file, line, column, severity, and message.

const std = @import("std");

pub fn main() void {
    // The literal 300 does not fit in a u8 (max 255). Zig catches
    // this at compile time and reports an error at this line.
