[Gambas-bugtracker] Bug #2422: Output of Logger should default to stdout, instead it is undefined

Thu Dec 16 22:50:14 CET 2021

http://gambaswiki.org/bugtracker/edit?object=BUG.2422&from=L21haW4-

Cristiano GUADAGNINO reported a new bug.

Summary
-------

Output of Logger should default to stdout, instead it is undefined

Type             : Bug
Priority         : Medium
Gambas version   : 3.16
Product          : Other components

Description
-----------

This page (https://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb.logging/logger/_new) says that if sOutput is not specified then log messages are sent to stdout.

However, if I instantiate the class this way:
hLogger = New Logger(LogLvl, LogFormat)
where LogLvl = Log.Error and LogFormat = Log.DefaultFormat, I always get the error "Log file not writable" when I execute hLogger.Begin.

On the other hand, if I explicitly do
hLogger = New Logger(LogLvl, LogFormat, ":stdout")
then hLogger.Begin works as expected.
