AfxTrace without MFC
-
I am looking for a way to use the TRACE macros without adding MFC to my project. Does anyone have macro definitions to do this? But if you do wrong, be afraid, for [the one in authority] does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of Wrath to bring punishment to the wrongdoer -- Romans 13:4

void RDTrace(const char* fmt, ...)
{
#ifdef _DEBUG
char buffer[1024];
va_list argptr;
va_start(argptr, fmt);
_vsnprintf(buffer, 1024, fmt, argptr);
va_end(argptr);OutputDebugString(buffer);#endif

Thanks Chris, I just about got this far, but where is the OutputDebugString function declared? I'm currently using to dump my TRACE output to a file, but I would prefer it to come into the IDE so I can see it while it runs.

OutputDebugString is a Win32 API function. #include Windows.h to get it. (it's actually in winbase.h). it's what TRACE ends up calling. ODS will even dump stuff in release mode, hence the #ifdef _DEBUG. you can even use the lovely WinDBG32 app to capture these message outside of the IDE. -c ------------------------------ Smaller Animals Software, Inc. http://www.smalleranimals.com

Thanks, I gave it a try and it worked. This is the first time I've actually had a question. It's great the speed with which this community answers questions.

You can just grab the code for AfxTrace() from the MFC\src directory and copy it to your program, too. There's also ATLTRACE if you are using ATL. --Mike-- http://home.inreach.com/mdunn/ "Listen you footwarriors, can you hold down a bit with the firing?
