Logging on import *.cdb

In CAE Fidesys 7.0, it is now possible to log when importing *.cdb files. To do this, you need to register a familiar construction in the command line import cdb 'the full path to your *.cdb' add parameter log {on/off} (Fig. 1). Remember that logging is disabled by default.

Your *.log-file is saved to the same directory where the original *.cdb file is located (Fig. 2):
