The only problem is that Netbeans is unable to turn paths into links in the coloured output. I guess this should be another bug report? First bug is issue 223210 (In reply to comment #1) > The only problem is that Netbeans is unable to turn paths into links in the > coloured output. I guess this should be another bug report? Yes, please file new bug. Integrated into 'main-silver', will be available in build *201307022300* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-silver/rev/89a9bb51fd5e User: Alexander Simon <alexvsimon@netbeans.org> Log: fixing Bug #231461 Enable clang coloured output by default: Partly fixed second comment "Netbeans is unable to turn paths into links in the coloured output". A colored message is recognized and avaliable in action items. Still not working: there is no hyperlink in output window (probably because OutWriter ignore listener in colored line). fixed by Alexander Simon. The separate bug for the problem "Netbeans is unable to turn paths into links in the coloured output" had to be filed separately |
Created attachment 135982 [details] Screenshot of clang coloured output. Clang is able to produce nicely coloured output when errors occur. This is enabled by default when executing on the command line, but does not appear when building inside Netbeans (tested on a new C++ project). You can explicitly enable this using the "-fcolor-diagnostics" command line flag. This will generate some nice-looking output in the "Output" window. See the attached screenshot. It would be nice if Netbeans could enable this by default for C++ projects using clang.
