The IDL Workbench > Problems View

# The Problems View (Collision Detection)

This view shows compilation errors and functions/routines with the same name that are located in your IDL path. Double-clicking a Problem Description will highlight the associated block of code in your Editor View.

Note: IDL only has one namespace, so if there are multiple routines with the same name in the IDL path, the correct one might not be executed.

Enable/disable Collision Detection in Workbench Preferences (WINDOW > Preferences > IDL > Paths) by checking or clearing the box "Warn when a routine is on IDL's path more than once."
