Tonda asked for description of location and content of ide.log as its is part of Platform contract of ErrorManager. I suggest to place is into openide-utilities document. Mentioning that this is description of the implementation we provide.
I could do this if you like, since I was the last to work seriously on NbErrorManager. Assign to me if so.
See also issue #17747 - docs for ErrorManager. May or may not be relevant here.
The ErrorManager documentation updated. If something is missing, please reopen. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 17747 ***
There is no documentation about messages.log or its format in the ErrorManager documentation because that is all implementation-specific. Is it still needed for anything?
Probably this is already done as part of the logging rewrite?
Done in core/bootstrap's arch document. Will be merged as part of issue 35067.
