esp32-C6 dev board– Where are the ESP_LOGI messages going

[roujesky]

First simple app with ESP32 board.   I just created a new project (blink).   Simple and I am stepping thru.   Just curious as to where in VS the output screen for the ESP_LOGI log statements are going.   I only have one port the USB-Enhanced…  (COM4).   I set  Teraterm on that port and I see the output, but then started getting a LOT of LibUSB errors and had to restart VS.   I noodled thru VS looking for any output for those messages, but I dont see anything….

thanks!

Hi,

ESP32 projects generally have 2 output channels: serial port (typically wired to the onboard USB-to-COM chip) and the application trace. VisualGDB supports viewing both:

• The serial port output can viewed via the Raw Terminal (activated via VisualGDB Project Properties -> Raw Terminal).
• Application trace can be viewed via the semihosting GUI (activated via VisualGDB Project Properties -> Embedded Debug Tweaking).

That said, the ESP-IDF has a relatively complex system of configuration parameters, so you would need to check them to see where the output of a particular project goes.

Got it, thanks!
