Ouptput question

Ouptput question

[JSONCRAIG]

This may sound really stupid but I can't get the output from compiling 
(warnings, erros, etc.) to be put into a text file.  I'm guessing it has 
something to do with c++.exe passing execution to cc1plus.exe.

Anyway, I've tried the following to no avail:
  $ c++ -o foo.exe foo.cpp > out.txt
  $ c++ -o foo.exe foo.cpp >> out.txt

This sounds like a real beginner problem, but I still can't figure it out and 
with STLs many templates getting expanded in a few compile-time errors, it's 
not rare to have an error go over 4 screens of info.

Thanks,
Jason

Errors get printed to stderr, not stdout.  The following should work:

c++ foo.exe foo.cpp > out.txt 2>&1

Are you running this from a Bash shell, a Windows 95/98 command line, or
a Windows NT/2000 command line?

In a Bash shell, you redirect both stdout and stderr to the same file
with &>file.

In an NT shell, you can't redirect them both to the same file, but you
can send them to two separate files with >file1 2>file2. (Using the same
filename for both doesn't work.)

In a Win9x shell, you can't redirect stderr at all.

c++ -o foo.exe -g -v foo.cpp 2>&1 | tee out.txt

the last two lines of output are this:
     as -o C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\ccR9Mhgb.o C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\ccI0Figb.s
    Bad command or file name

The file &1 is created and out.txt is not.  I'm using GCC-2.95 Mingw32, from 
Mumits site.  Any ideas?

redir on DJ Delorie's site (I think www.delorie.com) will let you do this. 
Basically redir is a wrapper that spawns your prog .. works just fine with 
eg g77 where I had the same problem under Win95
