I am useing mbuilder how do I get it to write a log when i do a compile?

Thanks

put

>> C:\compile_logfile.txt

At the end of the compile commands, and you wont get the logs in the DOS window -> it will only write it to the file C:\compile_logfile.txt

You can make seperate logs for all steps, or just the one you need. Click on "change" and put the code after your compile option. The text file can have any name you wish.

-v > c:\WINDOWS\desktop\log_bsp.txt

-v > c:\WINDOWS\desktop\log_vis.txt

-final > c:\WINDOWS\desktop\log_light.txt

I have them going to my desktop, so they can be trashed easily after looking them over. But, your path to the desktop may be different. Also, using these logs, nothing will be printed to the DOS window during the compile.

Looking at Bjarne BZR post, I guess using ">>" will make it add to a text file--instead of overwriting it.

And that stuff about the monkey is a lie, I've seen the monkey.... Really...

The monkey would get spanked but it is revered in some countrys, therefore protecting the monkey under the geneva convention.

Posted: **Mon Dec 01, 2003 2:59 am**

Is that the monkey that sees no evil pollys?

Posted: **Mon Dec 01, 2003 3:33 am**

And he hears no duplicate planes as well.

There IS a monkey. As long as we agree on that I'm all good (whatever that silver tounged monkey says).

Oh, and don't taunt happy fun ball.

No more monkey comments? I thought JV would have chimed in by now hehe.

would there be anyway to use

Code: Select all

>> c:\compile_logs.txt

and have a seperater between each compile log displaying the date of when it was compiled and which map was compiled? I kow i might have to use a date function to get the date, but at least a seperator and any other options which were set. For example:

Code: Select all

************************
date:
map compiled:
command  line:
other options:
************************

first_compile

************************
date:
map compiled:
command  line:
other options:
************************

second_compile

cos I would like my file to be organized - and i'm very forgetful.

Try something like this in a *.bat file:

Code: Select all

echo. >> c:\test.txt
echo ************************ >> c:\test.txt
echo ** BSP COMPILE START *** >> c:\test.txt
echo ************************ >> c:\test.txt
echo date: >> c:\test.txt
date /T >> c:\test.txt
echo time: >> c:\test.txt
time /T >> c:\test.txt
echo ************************ >> c:\test.txt
echo. >> c:\test.txt
"C:\PROGRA~1\MOHAAT~1\Q3map.exe" -v -gamedir D:\Games\MOHAA C:\DOCUME~1\Bjarne\MYDOCU~1\MOHAA\maps\obj\obj_saving_private_frosty.map >> c:\test.txt
echo. >> c:\test.txt
echo ************************ >> c:\test.txt
echo date: >> c:\test.txt
date /T >> c:\test.txt
echo time: >> c:\test.txt
time /T >> c:\test.txt
echo ************************ >> c:\test.txt
echo *** BSP COMPILE END **** >> c:\test.txt
echo ************************ >> c:\test.txt
echo. >> c:\test.txt

um .bat?

doo i just do a text and save it as my_map_name.bat and put it in maps?

Posted: **Thu Jan 01, 2004 10:07 pm**

You dont add it to the pk3... a bat file is a textfile that is executable in windows (like an exe) and when it is executed : it executes all the commands listed in the file...

cheers - i did know what a 'MS-Dos Batch File' was, but i didn't know it was .bat. Also it worked but it didn't - it came up with this:

************************
** BSP COMPILE START ***
************************
date:

Invalid date
Enter new date (dd-mm-yy):

I don't know anything about the date functions (i do in PHP, but not in anyhting else) please help! I just copied the code you put, changed all the directory's/mapname to my own.

But it writes to a file, and even if i drop the date that's the important thing for me

cheers,
