ECLogging defines some standard macros and compiler variables which can be used by other code.

Two macros EC_DEBUG and EC_RELEASE control the definition of many of the other macros and much of the logging code.

One of these two must be defined.

If you use the StandardConfigFiles, EC_DEBUG will be defined for Debug configurations, and EC_RELEASE for Release configurations.

If you don’t use the standard config files, you need to ensure that you #define one or other of these in your prefix file, before including <ECLogging/ECLogging.h>.

Macros

EC_DEPRECATED

This is used internally to indicate deprecated methods.

ECUnused()

This is used to mark unused variables or return values.

EC_HINT_UNUSED

This is used to hint to the compiler that a variable or argument is unused.

EC_EXPORTED

This is used to indicate that a method or class should be exported.

ECUnusedInDebug()

This is used to mark variables or return values that are unused in debug builds.

ECUnusedInRelease()

This is used to mark variables or return values that are unused in release builds.

ECDebugOnly()

This is used to wrap code that should only be defined in debug builds.

ECDebugOnly(my_func(1));

is a quick way of doing

#ifdef EC_DEBUG
    my_func(1);
#endif

ECReleaseOnly()

This is used to wrap code that should only be defined in release builds.
