| + | ==== Error console ==== | ||
| + | The place all messages are collected while running Nightingale, can be accessed via the tools menu. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Unfortunately there is no easy way to copy the error console's content. If you get asked to post stuff from the error console, one quick way is evaluating the following gibberish (paste into the field above the log messages, then hit evaluate): | ||
| + | <code>var cs=Components. classes["@mozilla.org/consoleservice;1"]. getService(Components. interfaces. nsIConsoleService); var l={cs:cs, s:"", observe:function(aMessage){this. s+=aMessage. message; if(aMessage. message=='[[[[[LOG:END]]]]]'){alert(this. s); this. cs. unregisterListener(this); }this. s+="\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n"}, show:function(){alert(this. s); }, QueryInterface:function(iid){if(!iid. equals(Components. interfaces. nsIConsoleListener)&&!iid. equals(Components. interfaces. nsISupports)){throw Components. results. NS_ERROR_NO_INTERFACE; }return this; }}; cs. registerListener(l); var consoleService = Components. classes["@mozilla.org/consoleservice;1"]. getService(Components. interfaces. nsIConsoleService); consoleService. logStringMessage('[[[[[LOG:START]]]]]')</code> | ||
| + | Then do something triggering the messages you want to record, and evaluate the following after that: | ||
| + | <code>var consoleService = Components. classes["@mozilla.org/consoleservice;1"]. getService(Components. interfaces. nsIConsoleService); consoleService. logStringMessage('[[[[[LOG:END]]]]]')</code> | ||
| + | A (long) dialog should pop up, but in contrast to the error console you should be able to select everything with ctrl-a and then hit ctrl-c to copy it to clipbord. You can then for example [[http://pastebin.mozilla.org|Pastebin]] it to help other users to understand and fix your issue. | ||
