Improve error reporting for called build tools

I added a parameter to a software build approach.
The development tool informed me by an error code that something failed.

• Thus I restarted the development application.
• A selected project was automatically reconfigured then.
• Log information was displayed in a corresponding window.
• Thus I could see where the system configuration needed further adjustments.

Should such details be accordingly presented also at other places in the graphical user interfaces?

How do you think about to follow any links for an error report?
