Launcher Wizard: Configure Redirection


  In this step of the launcher wizard, you can configure the redirection settings for stderr and stdout.

Note: this advanced option screen is reachable by selecting the "Executable" step and choosing "Redirection" from the Advanced options popup menu or by clicking directly on the index.

  The following redirection settings can be edited:
  • Redirection of stderr
    To redirect stderr to a file, select the Redirect stderr check box and enter a file name in the adjacent text field.
  • Redirection of stdout
    To redirect stdout to a file, select the Redirect stdout check box and enter a file name in the adjacent text field.

File name are interpreted relative to the executable. Enter /dev/null if you want to suppress output completely for all platforms. You can choose whether the redirection file is overwritten each time the launcher is started or if output should be appended to an existing redirection file.

Note that redirection files are created lazily. This means that if nothing is written to the redirected stream, the file file will not be created or overwritten.
