Runtime Toggled Debug Logging

Runtime Toggled Debug Logging — methods to quickly turn logging on and off for portions of GSK.

Synopsis




enum        GskDebugFlags;
extern      const gboolean gsk_debugging_on;
void        gsk_debug_set_flags             (GskDebugFlags flags);
void        gsk_debug_add_flags             (GskDebugFlags flags);
extern      GskDebugFlags gsk_debug_flags;

Description

These functions allow you to programmitcally set the GSK debugging flags. Usually, one sets these at runtime instead, by using the --gsk-debug=FLAGS command-line argument to your program.

In any event, GSK's debugging facilities are only available if GSK itself was configured with gsk-debug support, by specifying [--enable-gsk-debug] to GSK's configure script.

Flags which may be turned on to print debugging messages about them.

GSK_DEBUG_IO I/O hook debugging.
GSK_DEBUG_STREAM Read/write debugging.
GSK_DEBUG_STREAM_LISTENER Server listener debugging.
GSK_DEBUG_STREAM_DATA Stream debugging by dumping all the data exchanged with the stream.
GSK_DEBUG_LIFETIME Debug object lifetime issues.
GSK_DEBUG_MAIN_LOOP Debug main-loop behavior.
GSK_DEBUG_DNS Debug name lookup behavior.
GSK_DEBUG_HOOK Debug hooks.
GSK_DEBUG_SSL Debug SSL (a secure transport layer, used by https).
GSK_DEBUG_HTTP Debug HTTP, the protocol used for web pages.
GSK_DEBUG_FTP
GSK_DEBUG_REQUEST
GSK_DEBUG_FD Debug file-descriptor usage.
GSK_DEBUG_ALL All debug flags.

gsk_debugging_on

extern const gboolean gsk_debugging_on;

Whether debugging is on.

This corresponds with whether GSK's <program>configure</program> script was run with the [--enable-gsk-debug] option.

gsk_debug_set_flags ()

void        gsk_debug_set_flags             (GskDebugFlags flags);

Set which types of debug logs to emit.

flags : debug bits to start logging.

gsk_debug_add_flags ()

void        gsk_debug_add_flags             (GskDebugFlags flags);

Add new types of debug logs to emit.

flags : debug bits to start logging.

gsk_debug_flags

extern GskDebugFlags gsk_debug_flags;
