Xcode 4 How do you view the console

Question

I can t seem to find a way to have the console run  to show NSLog comments  in XCode 4  The normal method for the previous version of XCode does not work  Does anyone have an idea of how to accomplish this

You can always see the console in a different window by opening the Organiser, clicking on the Devices tab, choosing your device and selecting it's console.

Of course, this doesn't work for the simulator :(

Here s an alternative    In XCode4 double-click your Project  Blueprint Icon   Select the Target  Gray Icon  Select the Build Phases  Top Center  Add Build Phase  Run Script   Green Plus Button  bottom right  In the textbox below the Shell textfield replace  Type a script or drag a script file from your workspace  with  open   TARGET BUILD DIR    TARGET NAME     This will open a terminal window with your command-line app running in it   This is not a great solution because XCode 4 still runs and debugs the app independently of what you re doing in the terminal window that pops up

If you just want to have the log output display when you run your app then you can go into XCode4 preferences -  Alerts and click on  Run starts  on the left hand column   Then select  Show Debugger  and when you run the app the NSLog output will be displayed below the editor pane   This way you don t have to select on the  up arrow  button at the bottom bar

There s two options    Log Navigator  command-7 or view navigators log  and select your debug session   View   Show Debug Area  to view the NSLog output and interact with the debugger    Here s a pic with both on  You wouldn t normally have both on  but I can only link one image per post   http   i stack imgur com 4gG4P png

The console is no extra window anymore but it is under the texteditor area  You can set the preferences to always show this area  Go to  General   Run Start  and activate  Show Debugger   Under  Run completes  the Debugger is set to hide again  You should deactivate that option  Now the console will remain visible   EDIT  In the latest GM Release you can show and hide the console via a button in the toolbar  Very easy
