+1
I'd very much like it if JSON parse errors and the like didn't result
in an empty map but failed the build. I think ideally we could also
validate metric expressions using expr.y. If we include expr.y into
jevents then is there any need to parse the metric expression at
runtime? Could we just generate C code from jevents with a list of
events (aka ids) for programming and a dedicated print function for
each metric. The events would still be symbolic and checked at
runtime, but the expressions being C code could yield compile time
errors.
