34 void gw_log_init (const char *app_name);
36 Initialises the log-system. Application name is given by 'app_name' -
37 could be specified as argv[0]. The application name should not
40 All log messages are directed to stderr on return from this function.
41 Override this behaviour by using the gw_log_file function.
43 The log level is set to GW_LOG_DEFAULT. Override this with the
44 gw_log_level function.
46 The session id is set to 0. Use gw_log_session to change this.
49 void gw_log_level (unsigned level);
51 Sets the log to 'level' by using the GW_LOG_xxxx masks as described
55 void gw_log_session (int session);
57 Sets the session id to 'session'.
60 int gw_log_file (unsigned level, const char *fname);
62 Specifies that output given by 'level' should be appended to file 'fname'.
63 Thus, all log messages can be written to one file or several files.
64 If 'level' is GW_LOG_ALL all output is appended to the same file.
65 If 'fname' is NULL it means that the output is written to stderr.
66 If 'fname' is "" it means the output is written to stdout.
68 This function returns 0 on success; -1 on failure.
71 int gw_log (unsigned level, const char *event_type, const char *format, ...);
73 Append log message to one or more files. The value of parameter
74 'level' and the value given by the last gw_log_level call are bitwise
75 AND'ed. This value represents the log level for this message.
76 If this value is non-zero the 'event_type' and 'format' are used to
77 create the log entries which are appended to the log files specified by
78 the gw_log_file call(s).
80 The 'event_type' should not contain blanks.
81 This function returns 0 on success; -1 on failure.
84 char *gw_strdup (const char *s);
86 Works as strdup, which is not defined by ANSI.
91 <appname> <session> <date> <level> <type> <parameter>
93 Assuming that a 'token' is separated by one or more blanks we have:
97 <date> five tokens (Tue Dec 6 11:34:21 1994)
101 <parameter> zero or more tokens.
