DRC Status - up-to-date or out-of-date?

Hi,

Is there a way to get information related to DRC status. By that I mean that I would like to know if DRC Status is "Out of date" or "Up to date"?

Best regards,

Ole

Hi Chris,
Yes, thank you. This does however have a flaw.
run drc check
Try disabling shapes on a board with shape keepouts, move a via to go to disabled mode.
now try axlDBGetDesign()->drcState and observe a t is returned, but running a DRC check will produce a DRC error.
So I'll have to think further how I will handle this without having to run a DRC check before checking the state. Don't know if this is some thing that needs a SR.
Best regards,
Ole
