Feature availability for your product: CANoe DE • CANoe:lite DE • CANoe4SW DE • CANoe4SW:lite DE

​
Function Syntax

void writeEx(long sink, dword severity, char format[], ...);

​
Description

Writes the text into the last line of the specified CANoe DE product window, into a page of the Write Window or into a logging file without previously creating a new line. To write into the CANoe DE product Trace Window please activate the CAPL System Message in the predefined filters of the Trace Window. Note
  • When this function is executed with CANoe4SW Server Edition, the text is written into a new line of the Write Log file and not to the last line as described above.
  • As BLF is not a human readable format, the output string cannot be seen directly in a BLF logging file, but only after an import into the Trace Window or a conversion into an ASCII logging file.
