title: Writing to output window of Visual Studio
body: <p>I am trying to write a message to the output window for debugging purposes. I searched for a function like Java's <code>system.out.println("")</code>. I tried <code>Debug.Write</code>, <code>Console.Write</code>, and <code>Trace.Write</code>. It does not give an error, but it does not print anything either.</p>
  
  <p>"Define DEBUG constant" and "Define TRACE constant" options are checked.</p>
  
  <p>Menu <em>Tools</em> → <em>Options</em> → <em>Debugging</em> → <em>"Redirect all Output Window text to the Immediate Window"</em> option is not checked.</p>
  
  <p>Configuration: Active (Debug)</p>
  
  <p>Note: I created a project with the wizard as "Windows Forms Application" if relevant. I have no idea where to look.</p>
