‘Window’ ‘Log’

To open, select the menu item ‘Window’ ‘Log’ or select entry ‘Log’ in the Resources tab.

In the log window, the filename of the currently displayed log appears after Log. If this is the log of the current project, the word “(Internal)” will be displayed.

Registered entries are displayed in the log window. The newest entry always appears at the bottom.

Only actions belonging to categories that have been activated in the ‘Filter’ field of the menu ‘Project’ ‘Options’ ‘Log’ ( Options for Log) will be displayed.

Available information concerning the currently selected entry is displayed below the log window.

Category: The category to which the particular log entry belongs. The following four categories are possible:

• User action: The user has carried out an Online action (typically from the Online menu).
• Internal action: An internal action has been executed in the Online layer (e.g. Delete Buffers or Init debugging).
• Status change: The status of the runtime system has changed (e.g. from Running to Break, if a breakpoint is reached).
• Exception: An exception has occurred, e.g. a communication error.

Description: The type of action. User actions have the same names as their corresponding menu commands; all other actions are in English and have the same name as the corresponding OnlineXXX()function.
