Variables¶

Detailed Description¶
Contains a robust API for logging messages. Definition in file dlog.h.Macro Definition Documentation¶
#define DAEMON_GCC_PRINTF_ATTR(a, b)¶
A macro for making use of GCCs printf compilation warnings. Definition at line 59 of file dlog.h.#define DAEMON_LOGV_AVAILABLE 1¶
This variable is defined to 1 iff daemon_logv() is supported. Since:0.11
See Also:
daemon_logv()
Definition at line 72 of file dlog.h.
#define DAEMON_SET_VERBOSITY_AVAILABLE 1¶
This variable is defined to 1 iff daemon_set_verbosity() is available. Since:0.14
See Also:
daemon_set_verbosity()
Definition at line 92 of file dlog.h.
Enumeration Type Documentation¶
enum daemon_log_flags¶
Specifies where to send the log messages to. The global variable daemon_log_use takes values of this type. Enumerator- DAEMON_LOG_SYSLOG
- Log messages are written to syslog.
- DAEMON_LOG_STDERR
- Log messages are written to STDERR.
- DAEMON_LOG_STDOUT
- Log messages are written to STDOUT.
- DAEMON_LOG_AUTO
- If this is set a daemon_fork() will change this to DAEMON_LOG_SYSLOG in the daemon process.
Function Documentation¶
char* daemon_ident_from_argv0 (char *argv0)¶
Return a sensible syslog identification for daemon_log_ident generated from argv[0]. This will return a pointer to the file name of argv[0], i.e. strrchr(argv[0], '\')+1 Parameters:argv0 argv[0] as passed to main()
Returns:
The identification string
Examples:
testd.c.
void daemon_log (intprio, const char *t, ...)¶
Log a message using printf format strings using the specified syslog priority. Parameters:prio The syslog priority (PRIO_xxx constants)
t,... The text message to log
Examples:
testd.c.
void daemon_logv (intprio, const char *t, va_listap)¶
Same as daemon_log(), but without variadic arguments. Since:0.11
See Also:
DAEMON_LOGV_AVAILABLE
void daemon_set_verbosity (intverbosity_prio)¶
Setter for the verbosity level of standard output. Parameters:verbosity_prio Minimum priority level for messages
to output on standard output/error
Allows to decide which messages to output on standard output/error streams. All
messages are logged to syslog and this setting does not influence that.
The default value is LOG_WARNING.
Since:
0.14
See Also:
DAEMON_SET_VERBOSITY_AVAILABLE
Variable Documentation¶
const char* daemon_log_ident¶
Specifies the syslog identification, use daemon_ident_from_argv0() to set this to a sensible value or generate your own. Examples:testd.c.
enum daemon_log_flags daemon_log_use¶
This variable is used to specify the log target(s) to use. Defaults to DAEMON_LOG_STDERR|DAEMON_LOG_AUTOAuthor¶
