#include issue about shaderc HOT 5 CLOSED

Can you replicate the problem with the glslc command line tool?
What is in the included file?

I've copied your code locally, and made 'path/test.glsl' and empty file, but can't reproduce your problem.
If I move the include file out of the way or make it unreadable I get:

$ glslc -E x.vert
x.vert:4: error: '#include' : Cannot find or open include file. for header name: path/test.glsl
1 error generated.

If I put garbage in path/test.glsl I get:

$ glslc -c x.vert
path/test.glsl:2: error: '' :  syntax error
1 error generated.

Indeed with glslc I got the good error. I am wondering why I obtain a malformated error with libshaderc... I continue to dig.

Ok it was my fault:
When calling shaderc_compile_into_spv, I didn't pass the last argument options which contains my includes callback.
That doesn't explain the encoding error but I can live with that.
So I close it. Thanks @dneto0

Reopening. I can reproduce it.

When I send in an options object that does not have an includer set (this is the defaul), then I get garbled text in the error message.

Example output:

shader_src:2: error: '#include' :  ���� for header name: bar

I suspect Glslang should error out more sensibly, but will keep this open here so I track resolution.

I was not dreaming! Thanks @dneto0
