Hi everyone,
I find that nobody is answering the original question:

Can you guys help me out by telling me where to find out the application log?

Does the application log really exist? And if yes, where is it?

Thanks,
Ankur

I find that you have trouble reading; and, you open many years old threads for little reason.

The lower window with build log and build messages; right click on its title bar and see if you can turn it on.

The last few builds, I think it might have been called "Code::Blocks" under toggle option.

Hi everyone,
My apologies to Tim S. (stahta01), for rousing his ire over a seemingly dumb question.
Thanks a lot for going through the trouble for finding an answer for it, and the prompt reply.

Anyone trying to find "application log" should do the following:
1) In Menus (File, Edit, etc.), go to View and make sure that 'Logs' is enabled.
2) Now, there would be a lower window with the name "Logs & others" with many tabs.
3) There is a tab in it with the name "Code::Blocks", it is actually what you were actually looking for (the application log).
4) If you don't find it, just right-click a tab, go to 'Toggle' and ensure that "Code::Blocks" is enabled.

It seems so clean in the beginning that nobody gives it a second thought.
But, hang on friend, there is a scroll bar on the right.
Once you start scrolling, now it seems more like a log with lots of lines.

Hope it is clear to everyone and nobody has any problem with it.

Note: This holds true for Code::Blocks version 10.05.

Thanks,
Ankur

I confirm. On startup, the log does not show up until the user scrolls in the CodeBlocks log window.

This is windows only problem, happens, too, for the debugger's debug log
(most of the time I ignore long posts)

This "bug" is there for ages is is IMHO actually a WX issue. I have the same in several other wx apps.
