Compile Logs into Text File

[Jason]

Hello guys,

I need to edit the source code of DEV C++ in order for the "compile logs" (if the compilation is successful or not, line of error, etc) to be output into a text file.
I am using Delphi 7 to compile & run the program and it is working fine.

Now, I need help on how to output the compile logs into a text file with my custom format (if possible)
This is my first time programming in Delphi.

Thanks.

To redirect the compile logs from DEV C++ to a text file with your custom format, you can follow these steps:

Create a text file: Create a new text file named "compile_logs.txt" in the same directory as your DEV C++ project files.

Modify the project settings: Open the project settings in DEV C++ and navigate to the "Compiler" options. Under the "Output" section, enable the "Redirect output to file" option and specify the "compile_logs.txt" file as the output destination.

Customize the output format: To customize the output format, you can insert custom text or variables into the output string using the following format:

%f - Filename
%l - Line number
%e - Error message
%w - Warning message
%s - Status (success/failure)

For example, to output the filename, line number, and error message, you can use the following format:

%f (%l): %e

Compile the project: Compile the project in DEV C++. The compile logs will now be redirected to the "compile_logs.txt" file with your custom format.
Here's an example of how to use the custom format to output the filename, line number, error message, and status:

%f (%l): %e%n%s

This will output the following information for each error:

Filename (line number): Error message
Status: Failure

You can further customize the output format by adding additional text or variables as needed.
