Prompts the user with Exit, Halt, show Stack trace or Proceed. This function is intended to be used for debugging use only. The following example shows how it can be used together with the g_log() functions. If Exit is selected, the application terminates with a call to _exit(0). If Stack trace is selected, g_on_error_stack_trace() is called. This invokes gdb, which attaches to the current process and shows a stack trace. The prompt is then shown again. If Proceed is selected, the function returns. This function may cause different actions on non-UNIX platforms.
Invokes gdb, which attaches to the current process and shows a stack trace. Called by g_on_error_query() when the Stack trace option is selected. You can get the current process's "program name" with g_get_prgname(), assuming that you have called gtk_init() or gdk_init(). This function may cause different actions on non-UNIX platforms.
Sets the print handler. Any messages passed to g_print() will be output via the new handler. The default handler simply outputs the message to stdout. By providing your own handler you can redirect the output, to a GTK+ widget or a log file for example.
Sets the handler for printing error messages. Any messages passed to g_printerr() will be output via the new handler. The default handler simply outputs the message to stderr. By providing your own handler you can redirect the output, to a GTK+ widget or a log file for example.
These functions provide support for outputting messages.
The g_return family of macros (g_return_if_fail(), g_return_val_if_fail(), g_return_if_reached(), g_return_val_if_reached()) should only be used for programming errors, a typical use case is checking for invalid parameters at the beginning of a public function. They should not be used if you just mean "if (error) return", they should only be used if you mean "if (bug in program) return". The program behavior is generally considered undefined after one of these checks fails. They are not intended for normal control flow, only to give a perhaps-helpful warning before giving up.
