You know -- it would be nice if Oracle followed Unix standards in its error messages...

I do builds of many files at once. When the build finishes, I'd like to grep through the log file looking for errors. C compilers (for instance) follow the standard of outputting the file name followed by the error for just this purpose. By grep'ping for the "Error:" string, I get all the information in that I see the name of the file, the line with the error, and a short error message. In fact, Emacs compile modes can make use of this to jump directly to the line of source with the error.

Just venting some frustration...
