Name
debug_info() - display debug information
Synopsis
string debug_info( int operation, ... );
string debug_info( 0, object ob );
string debug_info( 1, object ob );
string debug_info( 2, object ob );
Description
debug_info() is a general-purpose facility which may be used to debug the MudOS driver. The debugging information requested is determined by the first argument. Successive arguments are determined by the operation selected.
The existing operations (0 , 1 and 2) require a second object type argument, and may be used to display the various fields of the MudOS object structure.
The following LPC code was used to generate the sample output:
create() {
write(debug_info(0, this_object()));
}
gives:
O_HEART_BEAT : FALSE
O_IS_WIZARD : FALSE
O_ENABLE_COMMANDS : FALSE
O_CLONE : FALSE
O_DESTRUCTED : FALSE
O_SWAPPED : FALSE
O_ONCE_INTERACTIVE: FALSE
O_RESET_STATE : FALSE
O_WILL_CLEAN_UP : FALSE
O_WILL_RESET: TRUE
