Remarks

The LogCategory values specify whether a message appears in the Output window or Error List window (or both), and the group in which the message appears in the Error List window.

To write a message to the Output window or Error List window from an extension of the SharePoint project system, use one of the WriteLine() methods of an ISharePointProjectLogger object.

Enabling Verbose Messages

To display verbose messages in the Output window, the EnableDiagnostics value under the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\SharePointTools must be set to 1. For more information, see Debugging SharePoint Solutions.
