LIBTRACEEVENT(3)

NAME
tep_set_loglevel - Set log level of the library

SYNOPSIS

#include <event-parse.h>
enum tep_loglevel {
        TEP_LOG_NONE = 0,
        TEP_LOG_CRITICAL,
        TEP_LOG_ERROR,
        TEP_LOG_WARNING,
        TEP_LOG_INFO,
        TEP_LOG_DEBUG,
        TEP_LOG_ALL
};
int tep_set_loglevel(enum tep_loglevel level);

DESCRIPTION

The tep_set_loglevel() function sets the level of the library logs that will be printed on the console. Library log levels are:

            TEP_LOG_NONE - Do not print any logs.
            TEP_LOG_CRITICAL - Print critical logs, problem that may cause a crash.
            TEP_LOG_ERROR - Print error logs, problem that could break the main logic of an API.
            TEP_LOG_WARNING - Print warnings, problem that could limit the result of an API.
            TEP_LOG_INFO - Print information about normal execution of an API.
            TEP_LOG_DEBUG - Print debug information.
            TEP_LOG_ALL - Print logs from all levels.

Setting the log level to specific value means that logs from the previous levels will be printed too. For example TEP_LOG_WARNING will print any logs with severity TEP_LOG_WARNING, TEP_LOG_ERROR and TEP_LOG_CRITICAL. The default log level is TEP_LOG_CRITICAL.

EXAMPLE

    #include <event-parse.h>
    tep_set_loglevel(TEP_LOG_ALL);
    ...
    /* call libtraceevent APIs and observe any logs they produce */
    ...
    tep_set_loglevel(TEP_LOG_CRITICAL);
