Log output to file

[Darkstar]

Hi,

I think it would be nice if there was an option to DTC that logged the dumping output to a file (as well as any switches that were used to invoke dtc.exe).
That way one could later compare if, for example, different drives are able to read disks better than others

Since it's a command line tool that is intended to work with a GUI, all output can be redirected pretty easily:

DTC.exe -fdiskname.adf -i5 1>>log.txt 2>>error.txt

Alternatively you can log to the same file, by using:

DTC.exe -fdiskname.adf -i5 1>>log.txt 2>>&1

True. Although I'd recommend keeping them separate so you can decide if it's a warning or an error.

so there'll be a check box in the DTC GUI to log all output to a text file then please?

[karadoc]

Yep, it's on the list. If it doesn't make the next version, it will be the one after.

For the moment, why not log the Java output? "It's easy!" (tm):

java -jar kryoflux-ui.jar 1>log.txt 2>&1
