Hello,
I wanna use custom errors in a DQMH-Modul and later generate the documenation by using Antidoc Add-on: LabVIEW project documentation.
Sadly somehow in the generated documenttation the error code and decription is missing.
Custom error in project (with naming *--error.vi)
The error VI
Here the documenation
Also the documentation of "Module Not running" and "Request and..." is not complete.
Hast anyone the same problems? Must I configure something in the toolkit?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @-Helmut-,
First, a traditional question: can you check that you're using the latest add-on versions?
Antidoc should be able to retrieve the error number and the string constant's content for all the error vi style described here. Your screenshot seems to show a code supported by the addon.

Hi Olivier,
thanks for your quick response 😊
I checked the versions, should be ok, no updates availlable, see below
At the moment I´m using LabVIEW 2024Q3 64 Bit.
Before I also uploaded the demo project, it would be intersting it it works on your machine
Or have you a small demo were the generating of the documenation works?

Olivier I could swear this has been working previously.

Release Automation Tools for LabVIEW (CI/CD integration with LabVIEW)

That's weird!
I have a unit test to check all the code expected to generate content, and it works.
The truth is out there 😐

How did you create your error VIs?
From scratch or starting with a copy of an existing one?
05-06-2026 07:43 AM
Hi Olivier,
I think I copied a working one like "Module Not Stopped--error.vi".
But also generated errors from DQHM like "Module Not Running--error.vi" are not correct.

It seems that I have a reproduction case
Can you confirm that the issue is selective? Just a part of your error VI is not working?
05-06-2026 07:59 AM
Yes it looks the same!
Error code = 0 and missing description
05-06-2026 08:17 AM
Ok, I think I found the bug.
The issue should happen only on the error VIs containing the `Error Cluster From Error Code.vi` and one or more VIs.
I have to make the parsing code more robust.
@-Helmut-, may I ask you to create an issue in the Antidoc addon project?
