Output redirection

rmartine · 01-25-2005, 07:16 PM

I'm trying to get my make output goto and error_log. I've tried the following commands and it's not cooperating:

make -k all > error_log

make -k all 2>error_log

make -k all 1>error_log

What is going to the error_log are the the make commands. Ex. g++ -o -c "my_stupid_program"

Any help would be appreciated

You could try
make -k all > error_log 2>&1
make -k all | tee error_log

Cheers,
Tink

Code:

(make -k all 2>&1) | tee error_log

Will push everthing to the error_log as well as scrolling it up the screen ( so you know whats going on. )

If you simply want to record the errors, and you don't want them echoed to the screen then.

Code:

make -k all 2> error_log

The only thing you seemed to be missing above was the space after >

If you want to still echo the errors, and record them to file do:

Code:

(make -k all 3>&1 1>&2 2>&3 ) | tee error_log
