libLog

About

A simple "do it all" logging library (Static or PRX) designed for use on the PS4 using the OpenOrbis Toolchain. It should be easy enough to follow along with for beginners as it doesn't do anything "fancy," most of it is just conditionals/data formatting, and it's less than 1,000 lines.

Features include:

• C99 standard, so it should be compatible with your code
• Automatically formats output to display file and line where the log function was called from (Optional)
• Various log levels
  • Set log level to display on-the-fly
• Colorized output based on log level (Optional/Where available)
• Logs to
  • Print (Simple printf)
  • Kernel (Kernel log, no hooks required)
  • Socket (Sent over UDP, does not wait for response or confirmation so it should not hang, but packets can be lost)
  • File
• Include a Hexdump for dumping arbitrary memory to a human readable format
• Include a Bindump for dumping arbitrary memory (Only via Socket and File)
  • This uses a separate socket/file setup so you won't pollute your logs with binary data

Notes

• This can be debugged/tested PC side with the include Makefile.pc file. Just run make -f Makefile.pc to build with it.
