TSTool / Command / SetDebugLevel

Overview

The SetDebugLevel command sets the debug levels for screen and log file diagnostic messages. This command can be used multiple times with different debug level (e.g., to isolate a problem). Currently the debug level applies to all components. In the future logging control may be grouped by component. Levels are not completely consistent but the following guidelines can be followed:

  • 0 = no messages
  • 1 = important messages generated in applications
  • 2 = important messages generated in commands
  • 3+ = messages generated in commands that may explain other problems
  • 10+ = messages in processing code that may still be useful to end users
  • 30+ = low-level messages, for example generated while reading from files or databases
  • 100 = very detailed messages

Command Editor

The command is available in the following TSTool menu:

  • Commands / General - Logging and Messaging

The following dialog is used to edit the command and illustrates the command syntax.
