jtag_uart doesnt work with prinf

Hello,

I try to do the nios "hello world" example on a cyclon III dev board. It works fine but I can not see any printf messages. When I change stdout ect. to lcd it works just fine.

Since it is very usefull for debugging i like to see the printf output somewere on my screen ...

What could be the reason that the jtag_uart is not working?

    Hello Dear HKNELL,

    Did you try in your Nios II Software Build Tools for Eclipse to go to menu>window>show view>niosii console ?

    try to run your application again and see if the printf message appears in that window(NiosII Console).
