I just discovered that with using ArcObjects there is no interface to access the datasource/workspace that a layer in a map is currently referencing if it is broken. There is a helper class to find replace workspaces and replace them but not to see what the workspace is of a specific broken layer. I'm not sure why but it can be done with ArcPy so it does not appear to be a design decision but rather a glaring oversight. Please add/expose this information with ArcObjects.

Seeing Broken layer via UI in ArcMap

I want to access the above information but with ArcObjects.

Can anybody in the https://community.esri.com/community/developers/gis-developers/arcobjects-sdk?sr=search&searchId=550...‌ space help with this?  If there is a way to do this, it becomes a question rather than idea.

Cheers
