πŸ’– log4c_location_info_t πŸ’–

okay so bestie, gather round, because today we're talking about log4c_location_info_t β€” the lil struct from the log4c library that's all about logging location information. yes, that kind of location. not your GPS, not your "where u at" text. we're talking about where in the code a log message came from. iykyk πŸ’…

It lives in the log4c manual, section 3, and honestly? it's giving "quiet little supporting character who's secretly carrying the whole plot." πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

so to even get access to this bad boy, you gotta pull in the header like this:

#include <location_info.h>

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no fancy arguments, no nothing. just include and go. πŸ¦‹


πŸ“– Detailed Description πŸ“–

okay so what is it? it's logging location information. literally what it says on the tin, bestie. no cap.

Think of it as the receipts for your log messages β€” it's the thing that knows where stuff happened in your code. like the main character energy of debugging. πŸ‘‘

🌸 Attributes description: 🌸

here's the whole cast of attributes, and yes, they're all icons in their own right:

  • loc_file β€” the file name. yep, which file. the where. πŸ“
  • loc_line β€” the file line. the exact line number, down to the digit. precision, periodt. πŸ”’
  • loc_function β€” the function name. which function was doing the thing when the thing got logged. 🫢
  • loc_data β€” user data. it's yours, it's free-form, it's whatever you want it to be. πŸ™ˆ
Todo: this is not used 😭

okay so real talk, that todo note is literally in the docs: loc_data is not used. so don't come for me when it does nothing, bestie. the docs said it first. πŸ’€

aaaand that's the whole page, bestie! πŸ’– this gorgeous lil doc came to you straight from log4c, Version 1.2.4 β€” yes the version is literally part of the page footer, so i'm legally and emotionally obligated to tell you. go forth and log your locations responsibly. slay. πŸŒˆβ­πŸŽ€
