Does musializer not have logging?

[Subhranil-Maity]

This says to check logs but the whole project have no log files

It refers to the command line logs. Launch musializer from the command line if you want to see them.

But in windows it doesn't show any log

I think I know why. The subsystem is switched to windows instead of console, which means stdio is detached.

I didn't understand what you meant, so I looked around and wanted to leave some references.

I suppose it's related to the usage of /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS in nob_win64_msvc.c.

Link to example from msvc nob source

From this page:

WINDOWS
The application doesn't require a console, probably because it creates its own windows for interaction with the user. [...]

But this seems to be exactly the approach shown in raylib's build-windows.bat:

set SUBSYSTEM_FLAGS=/SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS /ENTRY:mainCRTStartup

So I don't really know if trying other values is the way to go around this. Having no MSVC ready, I can't really test this now.

The equivalent flag for /subsystem:windows is -mwindows in mingw.

By default windows subsystem gui applications don’t get a console which means they don’t have stdout, stdin and stderr. You manually allocate or attach a console, such as the parent cmd, by using the win32 api and get stdio back and achieve a hybrid console/gui app.
