Where to find the compiler error output?

in Android Processing • 3 years ago

Hey Guys.

I have an android app that compiles and runs fine, until I paste in a function that I've written previously (in 'normal' processing). The compile error says: "Compile failed: see the compiler output for details".

I can probably work out for myself what the problem is in this function, but only if I can find out some more about the error. does anyone know where the compiler output lives?

I can post the function if it would help, but as I said, I can probably fix it myself. It does use the java 'SimpleDateFormat' and 'DateFormat' classes, but both these are also in the android SDK, so it can't be difficult to get it working right?

thanks

Jim

Yeah, it's a Windows-only problem:

It works fine on OS X and Linux, I just haven't had a chance to track down why it's different on Windows. The obvious thing being that pipes/streams are being handled differently there, but hopefully it's fixable.

So to answer the other question, I, too would like to know exactly where the compiler output log is. Anyone know?

Strange. This issue has been around for two years? There are still complaints about it here on the forum. I think that this issue is most certainly not fixed... or, at the very least, what is the solution?
