This makes sense for me, and I agree with that point of view.

Are you aware of the option to create / view a build log? This is a HTML file will he *full* build log to be reviewed "offline" at any time. I guess that's the option you are looking for.
With regards, Morten.

Hi Morten,

No, it is not the option I was looking for, but until we have you convinced it should be added, at least it is an acceptable work-around :-)

The reason why, is because it is far less convenient. As far as I can tell, the only way to see the build log is to leave the IDE and use a file manager to locate the file and open it.

The quickest way I could think of was to:
 1. copy the location reported in the Build log saved as-line
 2. open an explorer window
 3. paste the location in the address bar

And that is only when you have discovered that it is an option that can be turned on.

Whereas it could be as simple as:
 1. right click in build log view
 2. select 'full command line'

I am already looking at the build log view when I notice something is wrong.

I hope something similar will be added and I really recommend looking at KDevelop. I am not suggesting that this should replace the option to save to file, because that is useful too.

Hi guys!

All works ok with mingw (concerning full command line) but when i try to compile with "msvc toolkit 2003" there is no command line. Is it a bug/regression? I couldn't get a command line for this case even with some research efforts. If I'm just lamer please tell me how to do that!

Best Regards
Roman

TDragon:
Make sure the MSVC Toolkit 2003 compiler is selected in the dropdown list when viewing the compiler options.
