Debug output
Author
I know this is a simple question but still:
how do you print things to the debug window in VC++6? I mean that little thing that displays compile info and such. I want to print things to it like i do to the console... thanks a lot!

Is there a way to get a stream to the window so i can use the convinient stream operators ( << >> )?
Since it is mostly numbers i want to print it is a little akward to use itoa and such all the time.. is there a better way?

To clarify some more perhaps 
i want to do something like:
debugwindow << "really " << fancy << " debugging;
. iS this possible without me writing a subclass of ostream?

Yeah, create a WindowConsoleBuf class derived from streambuf which uses OutputDebugString to output the data. You can redirect cout to that streambuf or create a while new ostream that uses your new streambuf class.
Search Google or the MSDN Library on how to derive from streambuf.

Might it be possible for me to see an example of this. I find stl io classes a wee bit confusing

Sigh, that's why I gave the links to Google and the MSDN Library. There are a ton of articles out there that explain this if you'd take the time to look.
I went to Google and searched for "derive from streambuf" and the very first link they returned was a tutorial on how to derive from streambuf to print to the debug window.

Thanks a lot for your time!
