Suggest documentation warning of error message "Cannot infer contextual base in reference to member ______"

[danwood]

I've been getting this error message as I build up HTML code, and I finally realized that what was wrong was a missing comma, for instance after the .header(…) here. It might be good to document the error message phrase _"Cannot infer contextual base in reference to member _____" for people who encounter this error in the future.

(This is using Xcode 12 beta; don't know how it will appear in older or newer versions of the Swift compiler…)

Hey @danwood, this is a good suggestion! We'll look into documenting it soon. Thanks!

I think this has improved in later versions of Xcode. I'm going to convert this to a discussion, in case there are other ideas around documenting some of Swift's gnarlier diagnostics.
