Improved error reporting

Status: New

When building a project consisting of many files it would be much more convenient if the Build Output would jump to the line with the first file showing an error (or, if no error occurred, to the first warning).

 

Right now, if there is a build error I have to scroll through the (possibly long) list of files to see which file produced the error; only then I can click on the error message to have the IDE highlight the problematic line.

 

Thanks

Great idea! I second that!

Thanks Smiley Happy

 

'Under Consideration' is not so bad... much better than a 'New' idea of the same age Smiley Wink

Previous versions did this. Can't believe it's not in CVI 2013. Grrr.
