Question

How do I increase size of trace output?

Hi,

I'm running the developer edition of FMS3 on my local machine for development purposes and I'm working with large amounts of XML data. I try to check the veracity of the data by using appropriately located trace statements to spit out the current document. However, some of the data is large, and instead of outputting it I get the message "String too long to display". Is there any setting I can adjust in order to increase the size of traceable messages? It's not as if I care if I have a whole load of data in my log screen. Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards,
Dave Spaar

    Splitting is the only option as there is no config settings for it. Max printable size in a single trace is slightly greater than 1000 characters.

    I kind of reached this conclusion as well on consultation with some of my coworkers. It's not an elegant solution, but thanks for the confirmation that no more elegant resolution is possible.

    I am not sure this will help but in Flex debugger you can see a list of your object and variables with all the details. Flash debugger might be able to do that too which would be more help full than a trace.

    Good luck
