CCS: How can I open message log window?

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I tried to use SYS_printf.

I could see the outputted message in Memory Browser - SYS_PUTCBEG.

I found that CCS has Message Log Window. But I could not find the way to open it by Window menu.

How can I open it?

CCS: Version: 7.2.0.00013

    Hi,

    I suspect that SYS_printf opens in a regular Console window, but I contacted some experts on the SYS_printf to help. They should reply soon.

    The Message Log window is not accessed by way of the CCS top-level drop-down "Window" menu.  It is part of the ROV tool, which you can access by way of the CCS drop-down "Tools" menu.  When ROV opens you will see a list of modules.  The Message Log would likely appear in the LOG module.

    However, I don't believe that this "Message Log" will help here.  Something called "Message Log" would likely be based on the LOG module.  The LOG module receives LOG entries.  The System LOG is used for Execution Graph Details, for one.  You can direct LOG_printf() statements to the System LOG, or to your own LOG instance that you created, in which case they would be viewed in a "Message Log Window".  But SYS_printf() does not use LOGs, and by default it directs its output to the SYS_PUTCBEG buffer.
