replicate_layout.log is missing about kicad_action_plugins

This might be similar as #52.

Also on windows, you have to close the KiCad completely in order for log to get written.

Any it might be in different location (did you open different project and run a plugin, then opened different project and rerun the plugin. The log might be in the first project location.

Can you check this out and confirm it.

In answer to your questions,

"This might be similar as #52." It isn't. No replicate_layout.log file is written at all, neither with Place_footprints nor with Replicate_layout, and certainly not when both are used.

"Also on windows, you have to close the KiCad completely...". I'm using a Mac, not Windows. Exiting KiCad and re-opening it did not result in the writing of a replicate_layout.log file.

"Any it might be in different location (did...". No I didn't do that. However, I just ran my test case. For it, I ran Place_footprints first, and then Replicate_layout. I found the replicate_layout information at the end of the place_footprints.log file. That's a bug.

Best regards,

Peter

OK there is at least one bug in the logging code. The bug has been fixed so the plugins should generate .log files as one would expect. But as I can only test it on Windows platform I'd appreciate it if you can test it on macOS.

Will do. I am in the middle of something so I won't be able to get to it until this evening.

There is no hurry. Everybody has his own life with schedules, family, various commitments ... I can only be happy that you are contributing with testing. And if you would stop without notice, I can only say "it was fun while it lasted" but I'll be the last to judge you as I don have the slightest idea about you, your life and other circumstances. The same goes for me. I try to be prompt but sometimes it might take me a couple of weeks to respond, so please keep this in mind.

The logging issue should be solved now (#36 (comment))

Thanks Mitja. Much appreciated. Best regards, Peter
