What is the policy on using g_debug() in Evolution code? Is it discouraged? Is there an alternate API that I should be using?
I'm working on a patch for an Evolution plug-in and would like to add debugging messages at key places in the logic. Normally I would use the logging facilities provided by GLib, but Evolution does not seem to provide a mechanism for turning on and off g_debug() messages. They are always displayed in the terminal. On a related note, Evolution's --debug command-line option seems a bit hokey to me. I would expect debug-level messages to be turned OFF unless this option is explicitly given. If the user needs to redirect messages to a file, he/she should use the facilities provided by the shell. e.g. evolution --debug > log 2>&1 Perhaps I'm making too many assumptions about Evolution's design.
