Can't find messages from APPL_LOG("string")

[erltot]

I am going through the BLE Central tutorial and am a bit confused by the APPL_LOG function calls, from what I could understand it should give messages on serial port, like printf does, but i am not seeing any messages..

Where am I suppose to see them? I think I missed something fundamental here?

Edit: Where to put the defines

Tyler: See updated question

@erltot: If I'm using a make file instead of keil uvision for my project how can I define it?

[erltot]

@tyler: Sorry, i don't know. I would look for preprocesor defines/symbols or something similar. You could try to add #define DEBUG 1 and #define NRF_LOG_ENABLED 1 at the beginnning of your main file?

@erltot: alright I set DEBUG and ENABLED_DEBUG_LOG_SUPPORT to 1 at the beginning of the main.c and I know they were defined correctly because there is a #IFDEF that checks and the code inside it fired. Yet even though they are defined I am not seeing the APPL_LOG() in my serial console. What could cause them to not show up even when the correct variables are defined?

@tyler: I'm on thin ice here, but if I am to guess;

• Maybe wrong SDK version in regards to the defines? i noticed SDK.12.2 use NRF_LOG_ENABLED
• Maybe incorrect Segger RTT or UART/serial setup?
• Maybe you need to call NRF_LOG_FLUSH() or equivalent in the main loop?
