Getting Plugin To Print to the Console

[Sothh]

Well, this seemed like a simple thing to do, and a good way to get started coding plugins, but I can't get my test plugin to print to the console.

In-fact, nothing ever seems to print to the console, even though when looking at the other plugins, I see it should.

Does some level of debugging need to be turned on?

If we're talking about windows here, the output ends up in "python.out" and "python.err" in the installation directory rather than getting printed to the dos window.

Yeah, I am using Windows.

Why does MH no longer print to the console?

I'm not certain, but I think this is different depending on whether you use an exe compiled with visual c++ or with mingw. The nightlies use MingW while the releases have traditionally used vc++.

The mingw version crashes when printing to the console, so we redirect output to a file there. https://sites.google.com/site/makehuman ... -Visual-C-

How can I print a statement in the software on Linux platform?
