How can I get the ""MSBuild"" log when building from the IDE?


Beta 2 and RTM


The Visual Studio IDE profers up UI which allows you to set Verbosity inside of the IDE. This is located under tools-->option in the IDE as the picture below illustrates:

Set the magic registry key and the build log will show up in your Output window.

In the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\vsproject key, set the ""HostLoggerVerbosity"" DWORD value.
0x4gets you "diagnostic" logging.
0x3gets you "detailed" logging.
0x2gets you "normal" logging.
