Clear an understandable error logging subsystem in Google Earth #308

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Which products are relevant to this feature request?
Google Earth

What should this feature enhancement do?
Logs and shows (in a logging window or log file) all errors encountered 
when loading user's KML documents, either from network links or from local 
files.
It should show more detailed information for each error: KML element which 
raises errors, line number, etc...

Are there any currently known workarounds that produce the same, or
similar, result?
None I know.

Comment:
Debugging KML documents is a difficult task for large KML documents, 
especially for documents generated by server side scripts.

An example is Issue 307 in "KML Feature Requests and Bugs".
It tooks me more than a week of hard work to check my server side code and 
correctness of generated KML documents and, finally, I suspected a GE 
issue on <update> (wrong supposition!)

Only by chance I found that problem is not related to network updates.
