💜 Typedef Documentation 💜

🌟 typedef void(* alpm_cb_log) (void *ctx, alpm_loglevel_t level, const char *fmt, va_list args)

this is the callback type for logging. here's the tea: libalpm will call this function whenever something is to be logged. many libalpm will produce log output. and on top of that, any calls to alpm_logaction will also call this callback. so like, she stays busy 👑

Parameters

• ctx — user-provided context
• level — the currently set loglevel
• fmt — the printf like format string
• args — printf like arguments
