add [ {$apptype console} ] in project.lpr
and use WriteLn

Many developers maintain a console window to output debug info to,
alongside their GUI app.

However, if you want debug info only to appear in one of your GUI
forms, you have several options.
The most intrusive is to use ShowMessageFmt() (so you have to click
away modal message windows).

Or you could put a memo on your form and send debug messages to it...
or to almost any other visual control that displays text.

No,no , its seems I am bad in explaining!
I know simple ways like these,I want to sen Debug info in my classes
and its hard to make notification or dialogs every where.
I saw in sources DebugLn but I dont know how can I get the output.

@aradeonas
assuming u r on win
try this
go to project /project options/compiler options/config and target/
[target sepcific options] uncheck win32 gui app
add in uses [ LazLogger ]

and you can use debugln

YES!
Thank you It works.
For last question : Is there other way like a view to show that and I
have to do this?

sorry i didn't understand the question

Perhaps aradeonas is looking for something like the debugserver
application (.../lazarus\tools\debugserver\debugserver.lpi).
The readme.txt file in that folder explains its use. It provides a
separate window (in a separate process) for debug output - is that
what you mean by 'view'?
