title: Why is redirecting stdout/stderr on android not working?
body: <p>I downloaded SDL 1.3 and tested it together with OpenGL ES on my android 2.2 device. It works fine but I don't get the outputs from the <code>printf</code> calls. I tried the commands below as mentioned at the <a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/debugging/debugging-log.html#viewingStd" rel="noreferrer">android developer page</a> but neither <code>DDMS</code> in Eclipse nor <code>adb logcat</code> reports the strings that the program writes using <code>printf</code>. I made sure to filter for the <code>stdout</code> tag.</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ adb shell stop
  $ adb shell setprop log.redirect-stdio true
  $ adb shell start
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What am I missing or doing wrong?</p>
