Duplicate log entries

[involve39]

Hi,

I've noticed that everything seems to be written twice to the PDF Tools logs.

For example: You run a tool from the command line via

Code: Select all

PDFXTools.exe /RunTool:showui=no;showprog=no;sort=name;subfolder=no `
"{GUID}" `
C:\Input\test.pdf `
/Output:folder="C:\Output";filename="%[FileName].%[FileExt]";overwrite=yes `
/Log:full=no;shared "C:\PDF-Tools.log"

As you can see, there's only one input file.
However, checking the PDF-Tools.log afterwards, you see:

Code: Select all

[02.10.2024, 16:02:33] ----- "xxx" tool started -----

Not a major issue, but I thought I'd mention it

Hello involve39,

Please note that there are > and < symbols next to those operations. Those are the start and end of the said step. Most of them are the same second - but you can see the difference e.g. in the OCR step - where the start and finish are with different time stamps.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

thanks for your reply!
Did you scroll down inside the code window? I think you might have only seen the first log instance and not the duplicate

Hello involve39,

Apologies! I didn't see there is a scrolled in your initial post and assumed that you are speaking of the two entries per operation!
I see it now, but I do not know why the log is generated that way.

I will check with our dev team to see if they can comment a bit further on this.

Kind regards,
Stefan
