Console output under windows

Hello

I am trying to make a simple SDL application under windows with Mingw
gcc. I like to use msdos console to display some debugging output, but
when I insert SDL.h header and I link sdl and sdlmain libs, then console doesn’t display
anything anymore…

I tryed with and without -mconsole flag, this doesn’t change.

Is this a mess from me or else ?

thnx

Hi,

The output is redirected to a pair of files
stdout.txt and stderr.txt on the application’s
directory.

Cheers,
Paulo

look at sdl_main.c
there this redirection is somehow controlled.

search for:
/* Redirect standard input and standard output */
newfp = freopen(stdoutPath, TEXT(“w”), stdout);

It’s from SDL. To remove it, pass --disable-stdio-redirect to configure
and rebuild.

thnx
