Class Details

class Gio.DebugController
Bases:

GObject.GInterface

Structure:

Gio.DebugControllerInterface

Gio.DebugController is an interface to expose control of debugging features and debug output.

It is implemented on Linux using Gio.DebugControllerDBus, which exposes a D-Bus interface to allow authenticated peers to control debug features in this process.

Whether debug output is enabled is exposed as Gio.DebugController :debug-enabled. This controls GLib.log_set_debug_enabled() by default. Application code may connect to the GObject.Object ::notify signal for it to control other parts of its debug infrastructure as necessary.

If your application or service is using the default GLib log writer function, creating one of the built-in implementations of Gio.DebugController should be all that’s needed to dynamically enable or disable debug output.
