customizing build output window
« on: December 29, 2015, 03:32:39 pm »
The build output window ( aka "build log" ) prints out compiler command line invocation which is so long I need to move my mouse all over my entry desk in order to see which file is currently being compiled, and when it proceeds to next file it scrolls back so I need to repeat the silly process, is there a way to print only file names being compiled?

btw, I turned off wrap mode because wrap mode makes the output even worse in terms of readability.

if at all possible I would like to see files being currently compiled followed by short line warning/error outputs if any.

Thanks a lot!   :)

Did you look at the "Build messages" tab ?

thanks, the "build messages" is much better, except that it doesn't print currently compiled file if there are no warnings or errors.

ie. it prints just "build finished" if case of 0 warnings/errors.

You shouls also have a look into "Settings -> Compiler... -> Global compiler settings -> <your compiler> -> Other settings -> Compiler logging:".
And the "Compiler output to be ignored:"-box on the same tab of the settings.
