Enumeration Type Documentation

enum verbosities

Expresses a verbosity level.

Several classes report a different level of detail depending on the value of some internal verbosity variable, usually set with a function such as DviFile#verbosity.

The initial value of this is always normal. The value everything is the highest level (but not necessarily higher than debug; the value silent causes the class to produce no output at all.

The values are ordered, so that

  enum verbosities verbosity_;
  ...
  if (verbosity_ > normal) {
    // chatter
  }

is a good way of testing whether the verbosity level is above normal.
