SDK Logging

Post by SteenJakobsen » Fri Jun 11, 2010 11:18 am

Hi,

I'm Using the brilliant SDK in version 12 build 30.

How can i turn on logging so that I can trace and make performace profiling on scripts that are in production ?

I know about the system variables _DUMP_VARS and _WRITE_LOG_FILE
But how do I specify the logfile ..? Or where does the SDK put the file by defult?
Best Regards

Hi again,

This is a repost.. :-)

Am I the only one using the SDK and looking for a way to perform logging
like it is possible when building an EXE..?

Use the standard /LOGFILE parameter. Pass it in the parms parameter of RunCode or RunScript.

/LOGFILE=c:\path\logfile.log

Hi Marcus,

I tried it at the logging works fine :-)

But I can not se any varibles in the logfile.
I use Let>_DUMP_VARS=1

As you can se in my example there ia an empty secotion of:
18-06-2010 07:39:32:591 - *** START VARIABLES ***
18-06-2010 07:39:32:591 - *** END VARIABLES ***


Also the logfile does not include the code executed in SRT's
Is there an option to specify for that ?

Code: Select all

18-06-2010 07:39:32:404 - Started Macro : /* !!! SDK !!! */
OnEvent>KEY_DOWN,Q,5,DMkeyBreak
Let>[<<MacroResult>>]=

Hmmm. I need to look at this. Looks like logging isn't fully supported in the SDK then. We'll get it sorted.

Super :-)

I wrote that the code in the SRT's did not make it to the log file. That is incorrect...! sorry..
What i ment was that there is no indication in the logfile that the codelines
executed origins from a SRT. That would be nice.

Is there a way to change the layout and filter the logfile?
May be someone has written that .. otherwise I will write a program that does :-)

p.s. Some day you should se our implemetation of your product .. it works fantastic..

Looks like the _DUMP_VARS issue is an issue within the Macro Scheduler 12 script engine rather than just confined to the SDK. We'll have it sorted for the next maintenance update.

Ok :-)

Would it be possible to have a function to start and stop logging instead of haveing to specify an argument and having all the sourcecode included in he logfile...?
Also maybe an option to include/exclude the sourcecode in the logfile..

What I'm lookung for is a way to make the logfile more relevant and to exclude as much "noice information" as possible.

Also maybe only 1 line in the log per statement - stateing the timestamp and the duration..?

I know that I'm asking for new stuff.. Use it if its relevent :-)
