Creating Logfiles when using miabuild.exe

Postby cgrill » Wed Jan 11, 2006 7:15 am

Is there a possibility to redirect the output of the miabuild.exe dialog window to a log file?
This would make finding build problems easier when running in batch mode.
Thanks.

Hi

This is easy to do from the command line, just do a redirection. For instance:

Code: Select all

miabuild.exe [your parameters] > output.txt


Will output the entire contents of the build window to the file output.txt at the end of the build process. While during build this information is written to a window, after the build completes, miabuild.exe dumps the entire contents of that window out to the command line, so you can just use regular command line redirection here.
