This shouldn't happend. I added it just in case.

This hint may not be very effective if it corresponds to one of the messages above, such as:
panic: main/func.gno:3:1: f() (no value) used as value
Hint: Ensure the function returns a single value, or use multiple assignment.
I mean in this case, "or use multiple assignment" is superfluous。

Or not, this check should be checked somewhere other than evalStaticTypeOf?

well I think this part feels odd to me(the original logic in evalStaticTypeOf:
if len(tt.Elts) != 1 {
panic(fmt.Sprintf(
"evalStaticTypeOf() only supports *CallExpr with 1 result, got %s",
tt.String(),
))at the very least for case like:
n := f2()
func f2() (string, int) {
return "hey", 0
}the check can happened in *AssignStmt, to identify a mismatch on LHS and RHS.

Writing so much just for the sake of discussion.

Yes @ltzmaxwell I think this check should be done in AssignStmt and ValueDecl in trans_enter

This is a nitpick, but it is a bit strange to have a switch with only one case

Maybe the message could be improved here. "no value" doesn't seem as clear as saying something like "function does not return a value".

Did you get a chance to see @ltzmaxwell's comments? 🙏 |

Description
Closes #1082
Enhanced the error message in
evalStaticTypeOffunction to match with go's error message and provide more informative feeback.Example of Errors
Sample code (taken from linked issue)
Before
After
Go version (go playground)
Further Works
I think it would be good to fix
getTypeOffunction as well, but I can't think of a case where it would cause panic.Contributors' checklist...
BREAKING CHANGE: xxxmessage was included in the description
