Detailed Description

Logging functions of PipeWire

Logging is performed to stdout and stderr. Trace logging is performed in a lockfree ringbuffer and written out from the main thread as to not block the realtime threads.

Macro Definition Documentation

PW_LOG_TOPIC_DEFINE_STATIC

#define PW_LOG_TOPIC_DEFINE_STATIC	(		var,
			topic )

Define a static spa_log_topic and its constructor/destructor functions.

Since

1.1.0

PW_LOG_TOPIC_STATIC

#define PW_LOG_TOPIC_STATIC	(		var,
			topic )

Declare a static log topic named var.

The usual usage is:

    PW_LOG_TOPIC_STATIC(my_topic);
    #define PW_LOG_TOPIC_DEFAULT my_topic
  
    void foo() {
        pw_log_debug("bar");
