fromAsciiCaseless(
    xref:BloombergLP/ball/Severity/Level.adoc[Severity::Level]* level,
    char const* name);
----

== Description

Load into the specified `level` the value of the `Severity::Level` enumerator corresponding to the specified `name` (without regard to the case of the characters in `name`). Return 0 on success, and a non‐zero value with no effect on `level` otherwise. The behavior is undefined unless `level` is non‐null and `name` is a null‐terminated (C‐style) string. Note that this procedure will fail unless `isValidName(name)` is `true`.

== Return Value

0 on success, and a non‐zero value otherwise

== Parameters
