I have an app that logs messages (info and errors) as follows:
...
log_client_ = os_log_create( "de.zach.MyApp", "MyApp" );
...
void logMessage( NSString* msg, bool is_error )
{
if ( [ msg canBeConvertedToEncoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding] )
msg_string = [msg UTF8String];
else
msg_string = [[msg dataUsingEncoding: NSASCIIStringEncoding
allowLossyConversion: YES] bytes];
if ( is_error )
os_log_error( log_client_, "%{public}s", msg_string );
else
os_log_info( log_client_, "%{public}s", msg_string );
}
Occasionally, users send me their log files, but they contain only a small
subset of all the message my app outputs!
I am interested in messages like this:
2023-07-12 15:12:47.177849-0400 0x3bffc0 Info 0x5e4dc3
21784 0 MyApp: [de.zach.MyApp:MyApp] writing preferences (display name =
HDMI)
The message "writing preferences .." is an example message I output in my app.
I get a lot of other messages that I don't output; I guess they are output by
some framework I'm using, such as:
2023-07-12 15:12:23.437424-0400 0x3bffc0 Info 0x0
21784 0 MyApp: (HIToolbox) [com.apple.HIToolbox:MBDisplays] <private>
That's fine with me, except that a lot of the messages that I do output are
missing!
Users extract the log message using this command in Terminal:
% log show --predicate 'process == "MyApp"' --info --debug > ~/Desktop/Log.txt
Naturally, this command works fine on my machine, and I get all the messages I
am expecting.
This is all happening under macOS 13 (Ventura).
Big question: why is it that the log files from users sometimes do not contain
all the messages my app outputs??
They all occur on the same day, and users extract and send their log files on
the same day the problem occurs.
Any ideas and hints will be highly appreciated!
Best, G.
