Capturing Debugger Output

Post by Centripidity »

Does anyone know of a way to send the debugger output to a file, or even just a way of copying the Output window's contents so it can be pasted into a text file?

You can find it all in the VMD log file(s).

On Windows they're C:\Users\<your account>\AppData\Roaming\Voltage Module Designer\ModuleDesigner.log and ModuleDesignerTestClient.log

There's a lot other output in there too, so I find it helpful to prefix my log messages with an easily find-able string. That lets me use the "Mark Lines" feature of NotePad++ to filter out all the 'noise' messages and get just the one's I've generated.

FWIW, VM keeps similar logs (that include any and all Log/LogError messages the modules generate), just "next door" at (for Windows again)

C:\Users\<your account>\AppData\Roaming\Voltage\Logs

Cheers,

Anyone know where these files are on a Mac. I can see the log files for Voltage at:

~/Application Support/Voltage/Logs

but there is no equivalent folder at:

~/Application Support/Voltage Module Designer/

In case anyone is looking in the future, I found the log files on the Mac. They are located at:

~/Library/Logs/Voltage Modular Designer
