| Standard C Library Functions | addsev(3C) |
| | addsev - define additional severities |
SYNOPSIS
| |
#include <pfmt.h> int addsev(int int_val, const char *string); |
| |
The addsev() function defines additional severities for use in subsequent calls to pfmt(3C) or lfmt(3C). It associates an integer value int_val
in the range [5-255] with a character string, overwriting any previous string association between int_val and string.
If int_val is OR-ed with the flags argument passed to subsequent calls to pfmt() or lfmt(), string
will be used as severity. Passing a null string removes the severity.
|
| |
Upon successful completion, addsev() returns 0. Otherwise it returns-1.
|
| |
Only the standard severities are automatically displayed for the locale in effect at runtime. An application must provide the means for displaying locale-specific versions of add-on severities. Add-on
severities are only effective within the applications defining them.
|
| | Example 1. Example of addsev function.
| |
The following example
| |
#define Panic 5
setlabel("APPL");
setcat("my_appl");
addsev(Panic, gettxt(":26", "PANIC"));
/* ... */
lfmt(stderr, MM_SOFT|MM_APPL|PANIC, ":12:Cannot locate database\n");
|
will display the message to stderr and forward to the logging service
| |
APPL: PANIC: Cannot locate database
