Method Detail

getLogLevel

int getLogLevel()

* Get the current log level. The log will discard log entires * with a level that is less severe than the current level. * * E.g. If the current log level is LOG_WARNING then the log will * discard all log entries with level LOG_INFO and LOG_DEBUG. I.e. * there is no need for a bundle to try to send such log entries * to the log. The bundle may actually save a number of CPU-cycles * by getting the log level and do nothing if the intended log * entry is less severe than the current log level. * *

Returns:

the lowest severity level that is accepted into the * log.
