Control what is output in Errors report

[wgaffga]

Man, this would be useful ... the ability to control what the Errors report shows. Our project has many links that point outside of the project (and alias issues we're not worried about) and those litter the report ... we quickly hit the 50 item cap and don't know what may be missing.

Anyone have any clues as to how this might be accomplished?

Have exactly the same issue.

I've raised a feature request for it - actually 2 feature requests:

1. In the target, indicate what error warnings you are interested in (like ticking boxes on the reports). So you can say Absolute links / links outside project are not errors.
2. Have a parameter setting for what you consider a performance issue (so, maybe only stop reporting them after 200 errors, not 50).

If you have the same issue - raise same feature request, the more that are raised on the same topic the more likely they are to add it.

But in meantime - you'll have to detect errors using the Report functionality (or analyzer, if the project isn't too large and you have the licence).

Hope that helps.

This would be especially useful for building outputs from the command prompt. For our dynamic help, we include links that launch our CHM help file. Flare considers these errors, and with the new error code included in the command line builds in Flare 8, our documentation builds suddenly started failing. To work around this issue, we had to modify the build script to ignore the error code.
