_DebugOut to a notepad window

[gautxori]

hi,

i know there was some way to make debug messages be printed into a notepad window instead of the Autoit-GUI window. Can someone remind me of how to do it? (i would like to use the _debugSetup and _DebugOut functions, but with the standard notepad windows).

Tanks.

Nope.

Debug UDF used to write to a notepad window, before is got its own gui output window.

@gautxori.

You need to do the notepad setup yourself, but after that you can redirect the debug output by using its user function feature.

_DebugSetup ( $sTitle = Default, $bBugReportInfos = False, $vReportType = 1, $sLogFile = "" )

$vReportType 1 - Report Log Window (Default).

2 - ConsoleWrite.

3 - MsgBox. (version > v3.3.6.1)

4 - FileWrite into $sLogFile defines the filename.

string - name of specific report function to be used.

Erm. Can't remember the function parameters for the user function, but that should not be problem. At least one for the message text.

yep, i overlooked it at debug.au3, line 165. So, i must create alternative functions for __Debug_ReportWindowWrite (write to notepad) and __Debug_ReportWindowCreate (create notepad window).

Two much work for just being able to resize and reposition the log window.

WinMove ( $__gsReportWindowTitle_Debug, "", $x, $y , $w, $h) does it.

Thanks both of you.

[gautxori]

for anyone interested:

you must use

_DebugSetup (...)
_DebugOut (...)

before

WinMove ($__gsReportWindowTitle_Debug, "", $x, $y , $w, $h)

so that the log window is created before being moved.
