Propert Node To Show Current LabVIEW VI Error Listing

Status: New

Consider adding a property node that will return the current error listing of a VI or all VIs.  This wuld provide the same information a clickingthe run arrow on a broken VI.  This information would be of great benefit when programmatically analyzing the current state of a project or set of VIs to determine the root cause of why something is not executable.  Often there is one VI that is actually broken but is called by many other VIs that also appear broken but actually do not need anything fixed directly.  By having the error information, the root cause could be determined without a need for opening all of the other VIs.

You don't need to open all VIs - the VIs which are actully broken are at the top of the error list and are marked with red Xs.

That is correct, but the information is still not available programmatically which is the actual reason for the feature request.

So you're looking for a new scripting property or invoke node?  I'm debating how much I would use this.  I need to think a little more about this one before giving Kudos.
