| Name| Description
| xref:BloombergLP/ball/SeverityUtil/fromAscii.adoc[`fromAscii`] 
| 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`.
| xref:BloombergLP/ball/SeverityUtil/fromAsciiCaseless.adoc[`fromAsciiCaseless`] 
| 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.
| xref:BloombergLP/ball/SeverityUtil/isValidName.adoc[`isValidName`] 
| Return `true` if the specified `name` corresponds to an enumerator in the `Severity::Level` enumeration, and `false` otherwise. The behavior is undefined unless `name` is a null‐terminated (C‐style) string. Note that the names corresponding to `Severity::Level` enumerators are case _insensitive_.
| xref:BloombergLP/ball/SeverityUtil/isValidNameCaseless.adoc[`isValidNameCaseless`] 
| Return `true` if the specified `name` corresponds to an enumerator in the `Severity::Level` enumeration (without regard to the characters in `name`), and `false` otherwise. The behavior is undefined unless `name` is a null‐terminated (C‐style) string. Note that the names corresponding to `Severity::Level` enumerators are case _insensitive_.
