How to view printf output in a Win32 application on Visual Studio 2010?

Question

How can you view printf output in a Win32 application (entering with a WinMain) in Visual Studio 2010?

Answer 1

Another way which wouldn't require changing existing printf's and also print to VS output window would go something like this:

#define printf printf2

int __cdecl printf2(const char *format, ...)
{
    char str[1024];

    va_list argptr;
    va_start(argptr, format);
    int ret = vsnprintf(str, sizeof(str), format, argptr);
    va_end(argptr);

    OutputDebugStringA(str);

    return ret;
}

...

printf("remains %s", "the same");
