config.log and error.log missing in source code

Post #1by GlobeMaker » 21.12.2005, 01:31

Searching all of the directories and files of source code shows that config.log and error.log are not named in any file. Have they been replaced by shaders.log? That log file is named in shadermanager.cpp. But the other two log files are not named in any file.

The C++ source code was obtained Dec. 13, 2005 from the Sourceforge Repository using WinCVS. The missing log filenames are noted in the new flowchart in a different thread :

I tried to find the version number of the source code, but could not find the Celestia version number, like Celestia v1.3.8 . Is there a file in the source code that tells what version I am looking at?
Your wish is my command line.

So far as I know, and as you've found by looking at the source code, no such log files are generated by Celestia. If the flow chart shows them, then it is wrong.

The only log file that I'm aware of other than shaders.log (which is intended for debugging the OpenGL shader code) is the one that's generated when you use a command line of the form

celestia --verbose > logfile.txt

Where "logfile.txt" is an arbitrary name chosen by the typist.
