Redirect logging to file #10

Open John-Gee opened 4 years ago

John-Gee commented 4 years ago

With PR#9 we can have various levels from none to debug, but it's all to terminal, it may be good to also/instead redirect it to file.

Yes, maybe do it like this: in command line operation, don't log to file (unless specified by a switch?), but in GUI mode do it automatically (unless somehow specified not to).

That looks good to me, yet I'm thinking it'd be more confusing for the users to have a different behavior depending on the interface chosen. I'm conflicted whether logging to file should be on or not by default so I'll leave that to you.

Your could also have a panel in the GUI that displays all the logging (like RPCS3) which would be equivalent to logging to the terminal for the CLI. That'd be clean I think.

+1 for Logging panel, maybe an option to save to file. Then have a --log switch on the CLI.

That way we could keep the behavior consistent between UIs.

Yup that sounds good.
