WISH/BUG: unnecessarily logging

[JohnK]

I have a widget, and when I connect a running emulator to the IDE, I get a heap of logs, which I did not add. I checked the Java source code that was generated, and found numerous log lines.

The one below is the one that concerns me the most; its just logs and logs and logs...

anywheresoftware.b4a.keywords.Common.Log("** Service (widget) Start **");

If I did not put in the code that caused it, I do not want any extra CPU cycles being chewed, no matter how few.

Maybe there should be option to not include these logs.

If you want to save CPU cycles then you should not start the service so rapidly.

I will look further into it, but I am not starting the service this often; once a minute.

 

[Erel]

So this message should show once a minute. Does it show more often?
Note that logging the message once a minute doesn't have any effect on the performance / batter.

 

[JohnK]

Yes, much more often. My logging I have added for debug appears once a minute. The logging above happens all the time.

Its actually at a point where I lose my logging as it takes a second to scroll off the screen.

PS: Is there anyway to "disconnect" the logging once you have connected?

Dont know if this will help, but after I delete the widget, my logging stops, the above logging continues unabated.

 

[Erel]

The log message are actually very important here. They tell us that there is an issue with your widget.

If you like you can upload your project and I will help you debug it.

OK, I found the problem, and it was MY bug. :signOops:

However, I would still want the option to turn off the logging that the B4A compiler adds when converting it to Java.
