How do I capture all of my compiler's output to a file?

Question

I\'m building an opensource project from source (CPP) in Linux. This is the order:

$CFLAGS=\"-g Wall\" CXXFLAGS=\"-g Wall\" ../trunk/configure --prefix=/some         


        

Answer 1

Try make 2> file. Compiler warnings come out on the standard error stream, not the standard output stream. If my suggestion doesn't work, check your shell manual for how to divert standard error.
