Library log levels are: +[verse] +-- + _TEP_LOG_NONE_ - Do not print any logs. + _TEP_LOG_CRITICAL_ - Print critical logs, problem that may cause a crash. + _TEP_LOG_ERROR_ - Print error logs, problem that could break the main logic of an API. + _TEP_LOG_WARNING_ - Print warnings, problem that could limit the result of an API. + _TEP_LOG_INFO_ - Print information about normal execution of an API. + _TEP_LOG_DEBUG_ - Print debug information. + _TEP_LOG_ALL_ - Print logs from all levels. +-- +Setting the log level to specific value means that logs from the previous levels will be printed +too. For example _TEP_LOG_WARNING_ will print any logs with severity _TEP_LOG_WARNING_, +_TEP_LOG_ERROR_ and _TEP_LOG_CRITICAL_.
