See e.g. the examples I have given in the FESCo ticket: * a printf wrapper for logging which adds a timestamp in front of the format string, e.g. log("processed %d items", foo); which would be printed as 2013-12-06 19:00:00: processed 123 items to some logfile (using vfprintf with a format string like "2013-12-06 19:00:00: processed %d items" concatenated at runtime). * translatable format strings, e.g. printf(translate("processed %d items"), foo); Kevin Kofler -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
