"Something went wrong when parsing log files!" during quickly repeated single shot compilations

[ji-cerny]

Description

I have a relatively long LaTeX document which needs ~4s for a single compilation, more when more passes are required. I have a key mapped to VimtexCompileSS and it happens that I start a new compilation while an old one is still running. Then, occasionally, the following error message appears:

VimTeX: Something went wrong when parsing log files!
Error detected while processing function airline#extensions#vimtex#get_scope[20]..311[1]..<SNR>97_callback[1]..vim
tex#compiler#callback[54]..vimtex#qf#open[19]..function airline#extensions#vimtex#get_scope[20]..311[1]..<SNR>97_c
allback[1]..vimtex#compiler#callback[54]..vimtex#qf#open:
line   16:
E565: Not allowed to change text or change window:       cclose
Press ENTER or type command to continue

I do not know if it is vim-airline or vimtex problem, I ask here first, since the cclose command is in vimtex/qf.vim.

I am ready to do some testing/small coding, but a hint where to start would be welcomed.

Steps to reproduce

It is not completely easy to reproduce, it seems to happen by long Latex files only.

Expected behavior

No response

Actual behavior

No response

Do you use a latexmkrc file?

It is not latexmk specific. Infact it happens with latexrun and latexmk.

Strange. This is obviously not a "pure" VimTeX issue, but it may be possible to resolve it within VimTeX. It seems the problem may be caused by the timing of the callback. I.e., it seems that, in some cases, the callback is issued when the airline code is executing, and that this involves a context where cclose is not allowed.

I would prefer to better understand the issue and possibly be able to reproduce it. Still, I can understand that it can be more or less impossible in such cases, so I'll go for the quickfix. Let me know if my recent push solves the issue for you.

You may have pushed to the wrong branch however. @lervag

Oops! I'll fix that; sorry!

[lervag]

Fixed!

It seems to work (or at least makes it even less reproducible :). Thanks a lot.

Great, glad to hear it; feel free to reopen or open a new issue if you should continue to experience this.
