	Enables or disables skipping repeated warning messages. Returns the previous mode.

GMC_API_EXPORT void	GmSetLogLevels (const QList< QPair< QString, bool > > &rules)
	Load a new set of logging rules from a rules list. Adds the no qt rules option on top of the given ones.

GMC_API_EXPORT void	GmSetLogLevels (LuaTable &tab, const QList< QPair< QString, bool > > &extraRules, const GmLogCategory &logger)
	Load a new set of logging rules from table tab, using logger to emmit warnings in case of errors on the table. More...

GMC_API_EXPORT bool	GmLoggerDecorations (void)
	Returns the current logger decoration mode. When set to true, code logging value tables should add decorations to aid regression tests.

GMC_API_EXPORT bool	GmSetLoggerDecorations (bool mode)
	Updates the current logger decoration mode. Returns the previous mode.

GMC_API_EXPORT bool	GmSetStringListLogging (bool mode, QStringList *targetList=NULL)
	Enables or disables logging to a string list. This is usefull for capturing messages for testing purposes. More...

GMC_API_EXPORT const QStringList &	GmLogStringList ()
	Returns the logging string list (has contents only if GmSetStringListLogging(true) was called before)

GMC_API_EXPORT bool	GmSetCollectTimeStatistics (bool mode)
	Enables or disables the collection of time statistics from messages emmitted with GmTimeMsg.

GMC_API_EXPORT void	GmAddToTimeStatistics (const QString &msg, qint64 elapsedTime)

Enumeration Type Documentation

◆ GmLogLevel

enum GmLogLevel

Available log levels list.

Enumerator
GM_TRACE	Trace information to help system debugging. Much more info than you want.
GM_EXT_INFO	Extended information. Probably more than you wanted.
GM_INFO	Information regarding system evolution and config. Should be the "right" level of messages.
GM_WARNING	A warning message reporting something strange but not necessarilly an error.
GM_ERROR	Reporting an error from which the system can continue (maybe not with its total capacity)
GM_FATAL	Reporting a fatal error. The system cannot continue.
GM_TIME	Reporting timing information. New category so as to be easy to disable all timing messages for tests based on diff with a standard file.
GM_MEMORY	Reporting memory information. New category so as to be easy to disable all memory messages for tests based on diff with a standard file.
GM_COUNT	Number of log levels.

Function Documentation

◆ GmSetLogFile()

GMC_API_EXPORT void GmSetLogFile	(	QString	logfile,
		bool	flush,
		const GmLogCategory &	logger
	)

Enables and configures file logging.

Parameters

logfile	The log file name
flush	Set to true for forcing a flush after each log write
logger	Logger used to report success/problems while opening the log file

◆ GmSetLogLevels()

GMC_API_EXPORT void GmSetLogLevels	(	LuaTable &	tab,
		const QList< QPair< QString, bool > > &	extraRules,
		const GmLogCategory &	logger
	)

Load a new set of logging rules from table tab, using logger to emmit warnings in case of errors on the table.

The table should be a list following the following syntax example: tab = {{'gema.simLoader.info', true }, {'*.trace', false}, {'gema.simLoader.*', true }, } Loaded rules are applied on top of the default ruels set in GmLogInit() Extra rules in 'extraRules' are applied on top of the Lua table rules and can be used to override some of those config file options.

◆ GmSetStringListLogging()

GMC_API_EXPORT bool GmSetStringListLogging	(	bool	mode,
		QStringList *	targetList
	)

Enables or disables logging to a string list. This is usefull for capturing messages for testing purposes.

If targetList is different from NULL, the supplied list will be used to store log messages. Otherwise an internal list will be used. This parameter is relevant only when turning list logginng on.

When logging is disabled, if the target list is the internal list, it is also cleared. Returns the previous mode.
