build log print in an external file [message #1752868]

I need all my build log while building a project printed in an output file so that I can view all my build log created while building a project.

Project --> Properties --> C/C++ Build --> Logging allows you to specify if a log file is produced and its location.
It is the output from the last build and will be the same as that provided in the Build Console.
If you want to view it while building, use the Console View.

In my case, I would like to monitor the progress of the build with an external program (not my own eyes watching the console) because I would like to create a notification alert when build is complete. I can do this with a post-build option but that only executes if the build is successful. If I can monitor the log in progress, I can signal build complete. (I may have answered my own question, if I look for the build file, and the file status changes that would indicate build complete! I'll have to try that.)
