Hi Mark,
I've done JAWS scripting for a while one, and I always wondered how to make
OutputDebugString work. Thanks for the very clear post.

I'm not sure how to respond to these yet. I only get a digest so I
copied the original question into this e-mail. I subscribed for
Individual + Digest now so I guess it will be easier in the future.
Anyway, I use OutputDebugString. Here are some of the functions I set up
for myself.
void function logMsg(string msg)
OutputDebugString(msg)
endFunction
void function logCallStack(string msg)
var
string callstack
let callstack = GetScriptCallStack()
logMsg("CallStackBegin: " + msg + "\n" + callstack +
"\nCallStackEnd")
endFunction
void function debugObject(object o, int cid, string msg)
logMsg("DebugObject: " + msg)
logMsg("--role: " + ToString(o.accRole(cid)) + " - " +
getRoleText(o.accRole(cid)))
logMsg("--name: " + ToString(o.accName(cid)))
logMsg("--state: " + ToString(o.accState(cid)))
endFunction
Then if you download DebugView from

You can see all you messages. I'm surprise no else mentioned this. I'm
new to Jawsscript so maybe it's not a common practice to do this. I do
sometime have to use SayString since I need to know what's happening in
relation to things that Jaws normally says, but in cases where I don't
need that this works well.

Hi Scripters.
as per subject line, If I've got a number of things going on in a
script, and I've got a number of SayString debug statements along the
way gleaning bits of information which will help me determine the
accuracy of my logic flow, or whatever the funky term is for that, How
might I most optimally log those to a file for later more careful and
thoughtful examination, rather than having them just all spoken out in a
big stream by jaws as the script proceeds, and which of course I forget
by the end of it? <smile.> would I use some kind of iniwrite
functionality or something? or do people think it would be optimal to
use the append to clipboard functionality and just have all the debug
statements shoved on there, for later pasting into a file?
any info warmly appreciated.
Geoff c.
