print() outputs a newline after message

Solar2D Daily Builds and Public Releases

Hello all,

First, thank you Corona-team for an awesome update !

I just updated Corona SDK from 2014.2511 to 2015.2646.

I have a small annoyance,  when using print(), Corona outputs the message, then adds another newline (consecutive debug messages have an empty line between them).

Is there a method to print the debug without adding the newline? (note that in the previous public build, this didn’t happen)

I know it’s something small and stupid, I’m just wondering if I can revert this.

Thank you,

Radu

Are you adding your own new lines? Rob

@Radu,

Can you be more specific.  It this occurring in the simulator and on the device.  In either case, which:

  • Windows Corona Simulator Y/N
  • OS X Corona Simulator Y/N
  • iOS Device Y/N
  • Android  Y/N

I ask, because on the iOS device, the print output is a little goofy an as I recall gets an extra newline.  I don’t think this is something the Corona Team can change.  (We had a talk about this earlier last month…can’t find post right now.)

Hello guys,

@Rob

No, I’m not adding any newlines.

Example,

print("debug message one") print("debug message two") OUTPUT ------------------------- debug message one debug message two

@Ed

It occurs on the Windows Simulator (on android it does not). For iOS/Mac, I can’t test momentarily, because I currently don’t have access to a Mac.

Thanks,

Radu

Engineering will want a bug report on this.  Must make a simple main.lua with your two print statements in it, include a config.lua and build.settings and put it in a zip file…  Make sure to include information like that it’s the Windows simulator only.  Copy/Paste your log output.  Include the link to this forum post.

When you get the email with the bug report case #, please post it back here.

Thanks

Rob
