2.7.7Functions

glog

Shortcut to log on the generic area.

glog( level, message, [code] )

level	The level of the log entry.
message	The message to be logged.
code	A numeric code representing an application specific message ID.

This method is equivalent to call log on the GeneralLog object, that is, on the default log area.

It is provided in this module for improved performance.

The level parameter can be an integer number, or one of the following conventional constants representing levels:

- LOGF: failure; the application met a total failure condition and is going to halt.

• LOGE: error; the application met an error condition, possibly dangerous enough to cause future termination or malfunction, but not dangerous enough to justify immediate exit.
• LOGW: warning; the application met an unusual condition that that should be noted and known by other applications, developers or users checking for possible problems.
• LOGI: infromation; the application wants to indicate that a normal or expected event actually happened.
• LOGD: debug; A message useful to track debugging and development information.
• LOGD1: lower debug; debug used for very low level, and specialized debugging.
• LOGD2: still lower debug.

glogd

Shortcut to log a debug message on the generic area.

glogd( message, [code] )

message	The message to be logged at debug level.
code	A numeric code representing an application specific message ID.

This method is equivalent to call log on the GeneralLog object, that is, on the default log area, indicating the debug level.

It is provided in this module for improved performance.

gloge

Shortcut to log an error on the generic area.

gloge( message, [code] )

message	The message to be logged at error level.
code	A numeric code representing an application specific message ID.

This method is equivalent to call log on the GeneralLog object, that is, on the default log area, indicating the error level.

It is provided in this module for improved performance.

glogf

Shortcut to log a fatal error on the generic area.

glogf( message, [code] )

message	The message to be logged at fatal level.
code	A numeric code representing an application specific message ID.

This method is equivalent to call log on the GeneralLog object, that is, on the default log area, indicating the fatal error level.

It is provided in this module for improved performance.

glogi

Shortcut to log an information message on the generic area.

glogi( message, [code] )

message	The message to be logged at info level.
code	A numeric code representing an application specific message ID.

This method is equivalent to call log on the GeneralLog object, that is, on the default log area, indicating the info level.

It is provided in this module for improved performance.

glogw

Shortcut to log a warning on the generic area.

glogw( message, [code] )

message	The message to be logged at warn level.
code	A numeric code representing an application specific message ID.

This method is equivalent to call log on the GeneralLog object, that is, on the default log area, indicating the warn level.

It is provided in this module for improved performance.

gminlog

Determines what is the minimum log severity active on the GeneircLog area.

gminlog()

Return

A number representing a log severity, or -1

This function is actually a shortcut to LogArea.minlog applied on GeneralLog.
