TraceUtil.TraceCurrentMethodInfo

[Doug Finke]

I use the following

TextWriterTraceListener myWriter = new TextWriterTraceListener("trace.txt");
Trace.Listeners.Add(myWriter);

Then in my progam add TraceUtil.TraceCurrentMethodInfo calls.
The trace.txt file is created but no output.

A couple of things you need to do.

1) Make sure you are using the Debug versions of the Grid and Shared libraries.

2) Add a config.exe file setting the switches to pick out the debug output you want to display.

Attached is a sample project that has a sample config.exe file. If you build this sample with the debug libraries, the trace.txt file will be written. You can see another sample config file with the Grid\Samples\Quick Start\GridPad sample. In that sample file, many of the switches have a letter like s or x added to the beginning to hide that particular switch. You can see the complete list of switches in the switches.cs file.

Make sure also TRACE is set in your projects configuration. (Conditional Compilation Constants)

I used the Syncfusion Assembly Manager to switch to the Debug versions. The TRACE constant is set on the project. I see debug messages in the output window, the trace.txt is created but is still empty.

Did the sample program that I attached earlier work for you? It works for me here. What version of the grid are you using? I am using 1.5.1.1.

I used your sample, I am using 1.5.1.0. I haven't upgraded becuase I am using the grid in a user control.

The tracing was broken in that release. We'll have a public patch in a week or so that will allow both the tracing and user control to work.

Sorry.
