/* Public Domain Curses */ #include /*man-start************************************************************** debug ----- ### Synopsis void traceon(void); void traceoff(void); void PDC_debug(const char *, ...); ### Description traceon() and traceoff() toggle the recording of debugging information to the file "trace". Although not standard, similar functions are in some other curses implementations. PDC_debug() is the function that writes to the file, based on whether traceon() has been called. It's used from the PDC_LOG() macro. The environment variable PDC_TRACE_FLUSH controls whether the trace file contents are fflushed after each write. The default is not. Set it to enable this (may affect performance). ### Portability X/Open BSD SYS V traceon - - - traceoff - - - PDC_debug - - - **man-end****************************************************************/ #include #include #include #include FILE *pdc_dbfp = NULL; static bool want_fflush = FALSE; void PDC_debug(const char *fmt, ...) { va_list args; char hms[9]; time_t now; if (!pdc_dbfp) return; time(&now); strftime(hms, 9, "%H:%M:%S", localtime(&now)); fprintf(pdc_dbfp, "At: %8.8ld - %s ", (long) clock(), hms); va_start(args, fmt); vfprintf(pdc_dbfp, fmt, args); va_end(args); /* If you are crashing and losing debugging information, enable this by setting the environment variable PDC_TRACE_FLUSH.
