Where to find the output of Console.WriteLine?

[Stephanie]

Sorry for this Newbi question in advance.

Where can I find the output of Console.WriteLine() statements of my add-in? In my development environment (VS :Net in my case) or in EA? Are any configuration settings needed in order to see the output?

Thanks for making me a bit smarter

Choose View/Output from the menu.

In Perl I use the following statements:

$rep->CreateOutputTab ("test");
$rep->WriteOutput ("test", $traceString, 1);

The constant 1 needs to be supplied for reasons I forgot.

This helped alot, thanks.

The third parameter is an ID that is stored with your output and will be passed back to your addin if it handles EA_OnOutputItemClicked
or EA_OnOutputItemDoubleClicked
.
