3969	Line numbers of syntax errors are reported incorrectly in OMEdit	Francesco Casella	Adeel Asghar	"Open the attached test package with OMEdit and follow these steps:
- Open packages P and then P.Q1 in the libraries browser
- Select model P.Q2.M1
- The model is shown correctly with the line numbering of the .mo file
- Remove the semicolon after the declaration {{{Real z;}}}
- Check the model

The following error shows up:
{{{
[P: 5:3-5:3]: Missing token: SEMICOLON
}}}

In fact, the error is found at line 35, not 5. It is true that the error is located in the fifth line displayed in the code window, but the error message should refer to the line numbering shown, which is relative to the .mo file, otherwise one has to count the lines manually.

If I click on the SEMICOLON link, I am brough to a view corresponding to the entire .mo file, line 5. Besides that being the wrong line, the code shown in this view still has the semicolon in the declaration of {{{Real z;}}}, which is inconsistent with the previous view, and it is impossible to fix the error from there, so the link is totally useless. In fact, it is misleading. 

If I save the current view at this point, the net effect is to lose all changes, without any warning.

All things considered, the situation is quite confusing...

Please make sure that:
- line numbers in error messages in the message browser are consistent to the line numbers shown in the source code window of the class being checked or compiled
- clicking on the link in the error message brings to the error location in the same view from which the check or compile command was run, not to another view which still contains the previous syntactically correct version of the code"	defect	closed	blocker		OMEdit		fixed
