Function

GLiblog_set_always_fatal

Declaration

GLogLevelFlags
g_log_set_always_fatal (
  GLogLevelFlags fatal_mask
)

Description

Sets the message levels which are always fatal, in any log domain.

When a message with any of these levels is logged the program terminates. You can only set the levels defined by GLib to be fatal. GLogLevelFlags is always fatal.

You can also make some message levels fatal at runtime by setting the G_DEBUG environment variable (see Running GLib Applications).

Libraries should not call this function, as it affects all messages logged by a process, including those from other libraries.

Structured log messages (using g_log_structured() and g_log_structured_array()) are fatal only if the default log writer is used; otherwise it is up to the writer function to determine which log messages are fatal. See Using Structured Logging.

Parameters

fatal_mask

Type: GLogLevelFlags

The mask containing bits set for each level of error which is to be fatal.

Return value

Type: GLogLevelFlags

The old fatal mask.
