Unhandled errors

[MogaRaghu]

When  using certain functions that are less frequently called, I feel like not using the "error out"  node  as,  even if it generates an error, it is not significant. As an example if i use the "New Directory" function to create a  directory, it will generate an error 10  if the directory already exists.  Even if I  don't handle the error,  the rest of the code just runs.

Question is  what happens to the generated error ? Is it  internally queued in  memory  and  if left  to "grow" , can it crash the  code ultimatley ?

Thanks for any tips..

No, unused outputs are not "queued" or save anywhere and they won't cause any crashes.

If you don't wire the error output and you don't care about the error condition as in your "new directory" example, you should also make sure that "automatic error handling" is disabled.

The exact reply that I was expecting. Thanks.
