Is it possible to change where in the codebase is highlighted when double-clicking on a console log?

I have a generic 'behaviour' wrapper class that I use in scripting for a couple of reasons, one of the main ones being debugging. In this class, I have my own wrapper functions for Debug.Log, Debug.Warning and Debug.Error and a debug state enum so I can control when debug messages appear on a per-object basis. It looks something like this:

Code (CSharp):

1. public class WrapperBehaviour : MonoBehaviour {
2.  
3.     public DebugState localDebugState;
4.  
5.     public void Log(GameObject sender, string message) {
6.         if (localDebugState == DebugState.LogsOnly || localDebugState == DebugState.All) {
7.             Debug.Log(message, sender);
8.         }
9.     }
10. }

However, I've noticed that when I double click a message in the Editor console, it takes me to the actual occurrence of Debug.Log/Warning/Error, rather than the place where the Log/Warning/Error method occurs. It makes sense, but is it possible to change it so that double-clicking brings up the place where Log/Warning/Error is originally called instead?

 

If you store the Debug.Log wrapper in a DLL, a double-click forwards you to the caller, rather than to your own Log implementation.

 

More of a workaround than a solution, but the Console Enhanced asset has the ability to add custom wrapper functions that will be skipped when going to the source file.

 

Unreal, this is a great solution. Thanks a tonne!

 

Just wanted to add a note for anyone reading: using an assembly definition will not accomplish the same thing.

 

It took me some time to figure out how to do this in Visual Studio 2022 + Unity 2021, so I'll just leave the current instructions here: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UsingDLL.html

When I tried to create the project in VS, I had to click install more tools and features and then install the .NET Desktop Development workload. Also, the project template for me is called Class Library (.NET Framework) as opposed to Class Library (.NET Standard).

Besides that, the only other thing I did was navigate to Project -> <ProjectName> Properties and change Target Framework to .NET Framework 4. The rest of the instructions worked correctly, as far as I can tell.

 

Heya! Reviving this.

Currently encountering the same problem as in the original post, even though the wrapper functions are already in a DLL. Double-clicking the logs in the console brings me to the function definition in the DLL.

Any idea as to what might be happening?
