Error logging
Java uses a global logger, but since MD extensions are an extension to the main Moneydance application, does my extension have access to the logger or is that reserved for Moneydance?
To ask a more basic question, what is the simplest way for users of an extension (the public) to send error logs back to the extension developer if something unexpected happened?

I’m not sure this answers your question. But you can write to the Moneydance console (errlog.txt / help>show console) by doing:
System.err.write(msg)
This is the way that ultimately all extensions output their errors.
Most extensions have a debug mode which tells the extn to become more verbose.
Users typically then send the whole console to the developer.

Got it. Thanks. That is the pointer in the right direction I needed.
