This class serves as a namespace containing a suite of utility functions that allow low-level code to write log messages to a configurable, globally controlled destination.

| Name | Description |
|---|---|
LogMessageHandler | The LogMessageHandler typedef represents a type of function that handles log messages in an unspecified way (e.g., by writing the log message to an output stream or to a file). Because they can be called concurrently from multiple threads, log message handlers must be thread-safe. While installed, handlers must exhibit only defined behavior if the specified file is a null-terminated string, the specified line is not negative, and the specified message is a null-terminated string. |
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
logFormattedMessage | If the specified severity is at least as severe as severityThrehold, invoke the currently installed log message handler with severity and the specified file and line, as well as a message string created by calling sprintf on the specified format with the specified variadic arguments; otherwise (if severity is less severe), this operation has no effect. The behavior is undefined unless 0 <= line, and format is a valid sprintf format specification for the supplied variadic arguments. |
logMessage | If the specified severity is at least as severe as severityThreshold, invoke the currently installed log message handler with severity, as well as the specified file, line, and message; otherwise (if severity is less severe), this operation has no effect. The behavior is undefined unless 0 <= line. |
logMessageHandler | Return the address of the currently installed log message handler. |
platformDefaultMessageHandler | Write, to a platform-specific destination, a string composed of the specified severity, file name, line number, and message. On non-Windows systems, write the log record to the stderr output stream. On Windows systems: If the current process is running in console mode, write the log record to the stderr output stream. If the current process is running in non-console mode, write the log record to the Windows process debugger. The behavior is undefined unless 0 <= line. Note that this function is used as the default log message handler. Also note that this function will write the message irrespective of the current severityThreshold. |
setLogMessageHandler | Install the specified handler as the current log message handler. |
setSeverityThreshold | Set the severity threshold at which log records are written by logMessage and logFormattedMessage to the specified severity. |
severityThreshold | Return the currently configured severity threshold at or above which records are written by logMessage and logFormattedMessage. |
stderrMessageHandler | Write, to the stderr output stream, a string composed of the specified severity, file name, line number, and the message. The behavior is undefined unless 0 <= line. Note that this function provides an implementation of the LogMessageHandler function prototype, and will write the message irrespective of the current severityThreshold. |
stdoutMessageHandler | Write, to the stdout output stream, a string composed of the specified severity, file name, line number, and the message. The behavior is undefined unless 0 <= line. Note that this function provides an implementation of the LogMessageHandler function prototype, and will write the message irrespective of the current severityThreshold. |
