Logging

This section describes the “Logging” controls for logging and display of messages within the application.

This is for use with the grid generation application to assist with debugging and troubleshooting. These control the level of information provided to the information box in the application and to the log file, if enabled.

Instead of taking screen shots of the information window, messages can be logged to a file by setting a filename and checking the “Enable file logging” box. Set the filename first, then check the checkbox.

Note

Setting of the debug level above MESSAGE will not do much to help troubleshoot the grid generation application. In most cases, it will cause the application to quit operation at which point, the only way to continue is to restart the entire notebook.

For the log file to match everything that is displayed in the “Information” window, log level and information level should use the SAME setting.
