wxLogNull(3)

✨ wxLogNull(3) ✨

okay bestie, so this is a page from the Erlang Module Definition manual, and today's main character is wxLogNull 🫶 buckle up.

---

💖 NAME 💖

wxLogNull — this class lets you temporarily suspend logging, no cap.

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So here's the vibe: for the entire lifetime of an object of this class, all calls to the log functions are just... ignored. Like, completely. Not a peep. 🙈✨

And specifically? It can be used to suppress the log messages that wxWidgets itself hands you. But — and this is important, bestie, don't skip this part — it should be noted that this is rarely the best way to cope with this problem, because all log messages get suppressed. Every single one. Even the ones that indicate a completely different error than the one the programmer actually wanted to suppress. 😭 like you thought you were muting one guy and you muted the whole group chat.

For instance, the example of the overview:

would be better written as:

wxWidgets docs: wxLogNull

no fr, that's genuinely how the original reads — the code examples live in the docs, and this page just points you there. 💅

🌈 FUNCTIONS 🌈

and that's the whole page, you ate that 🍓 thanks for reading, mwah 💜
