|

|

As mentioned above if `FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_ERROR' and
|
||||
`FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE' macros are defined, FreeType will send the
|

debug and trace logs outputted from `FT_ERROR' and `FT_TRACE'
|

macros to `stderr'.
|
||||
|
||||
`FT_LOGGING' is a new macro which is introduced to enhance the
|
||||
capabilities of `FT_TRACE' and `FT_ERROR' macros.
|
||||
`FT_LOGGING' macro depends on `FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE' and
|
||||
`FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_ERROR', therefore these macros will automatically
|
||||
be #defined once `FT_LOGGING' macro is #defined and
|
||||
the behaviour of `FT_TRACE' and `FT_ERROR' macros will change.
|
||||
Now, `FT_TRACE' and `FT_ERROR' macros will start sending the
|
||||
tracing and debugging messages to the file system instead of
|
||||
`stderr'.
|
||||
On the file system the log file will be generated on the path
|
||||
specified using `FT_LOGGING_FILE' environment variable(more on
|
||||
this later).
|
||||
|
||||
There is an additional support of logging Time and the name of
|
||||
the `FT_COMPONENT' from which the current log is generated along
|
||||
with the actual tracing and debugging message, and for this user
|
||||
will have to define additional tags under the `FT2_DEBUG'
|
||||
environment variable(More details under section `FT2_DEBUG' under
|
||||
Environment Variables heading).

IV. Additional Capabilities with `FT_LOGGING'
|
||||
--------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
With the support of `FT_LOGGING', four APIs have been introduced for
|
||||
providing additional debugging support to the applications using
|
||||
FreeType.
|
||||
|
||||
FT_Trace_Set_Level( const char* )
|
||||
|
||||
If FreeType is configured with `FT_LOGGING' the levels of tracing
|
||||
component set using `FT2_DEBUG' environment variable is considered
|
||||
as a default value.
|
||||
And this function can be used change/set the value of the levels
|
||||
of tracing components at run-time.
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: If the environment variable `FT2_DEBUG is not defined the
|
||||
default value of the levels of tracing components will be NULL.
|
||||
|
||||
FT_Trace_Set_Default_Level():
|
||||
|
||||
If previously, `FT_Trace_Set_Level' functions is used to set new
|
||||
values of the tracing components of FreeType, this function could
|
||||
be used to reset the level of tracing components to the default
|
||||
value.
|
||||
Hence, the functions `FT_Trace_Set_Default_Level' and
|
||||
`FT_Trace_Set_Level' could be combined and used together to
|
||||
change the trace levels of FreeType's components for a particular
|
||||
block of code.
|
||||
|
||||
FT_Set_Log_Handler( ft_custom_log_handler ):
|
||||
|
||||
This API has been provided under the `FT_LOGGING' macro to support
|
||||
a feature wherein a custom log handler can be provided based on
|
||||
user’s choice. Doing so, FreeType will start calling the custom
|
||||
handler for new log messages and will no longer write these
|
||||
messages in predefined log file of FreeType. It will totally
|
||||
depend on user how the log messages will be handled.
|
||||
User just need to call this API with an argument of type
|
||||
ft_custom_log_handler which should match following function
|
||||
prototype:
|
||||
|
||||
void (*ft_custom_log_handler)( const char* ft_component,
|
||||
const char* fmt,
|
||||
va_list args );
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
FT_Set_Default_Log_Handler():
|
||||
|
||||
If the user has chosen to set a custom log handler using the
|
||||
`FT_Set_Log_Handler' API above, the current API can be used to
|
||||
reset back the log handler to the Freetype's inbuilt log handler.
|
||||
Hence, the functions `FT_Set_Default_Log_Handler' and
|
||||
`FT_Set_Log_Handler' in combination can be used to separately
|
||||
handle the trace or error logs generated by a particular block
|
||||
of code.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Applications need to #include the following header file to avail the
|
||||
above APIs:
|
||||
|
||||
#include<freetype/ftlogging.h>
