To be precise, when started from a console application, such as the shell, graphical applications can attach to their parent's console: AttachConsole(ATTACH_PARENT_PROCESS); WriteConsole(GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE), "boza", 4, &n, NULL); It may be possible to create a file descriptor with _open_osfhandle() and replace stdout (and the others) with dup2(), I haven't tested. The mpv player (a fork of MPlayer) under Windows uses it's parent console, if any. -- E-gards: Jimmy ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.geany.org https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel

This is exactly the trick on Windows. -v will open another terminal window where debug output is printed to. This is because on Windows you have to decide at compile time whether you want to have a console application or a graphical application. Console applications can print directly to the terminal but not graphical applications. Since Geany is clearly a graphical application, there is no console output by default. When the -v switch is used, Geany does some Windows API magic to open that other terminal window and print output to it. This is just for debugging/developing. Alternatively, by using geany_debug() and/or g_message()/g_warning() you can see the messages also in Geany itself in the Help->Debug Messages dialog. There those messages are always available, even without the -v switch.

In that case Geany will display any files specified on that display and exit immediately.

[Geany-Devel] debug output on win32
Hello all, I have installed a buildenvironment on my Win32 virtualbox. I want to investigate in the source code and have some debug output from the running application. I tried printf as well as geany_debug. I also set G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all. However starting the application from the commandshell cmd: - returns immediatel to the promt, without waiting the application to close, - does not output any debug hint on the console. Could you guide me how to have some informative output from the running application.
