what is the macro to disable all prints

[oneandonlyonebutyou]

Is there any macro where I could diable all prints, and basically fully remove the lib, when I am not debugging

Not at present. What I have done in the past is to make an internal print macro, such as debug_print. If a definition is present, such as DISABLE_DEBUG_PRINTS, it is defined to an empty value, otherwise it simply aliases printf.

I'll work on implementing something like that in the Arduino library wrapper next week.

Alternatively, our logging library already supports this behavior (as well as configurable log levels): https://github.com/embeddedartistry/arduino-logger

Thank you..: I am not such an expert on macros How does your macro looks like to be able to print multiple values

[phillipjohnston]

General form:

#ifdef DISABLE_DEBUG_PRINT
#define debug_print(...)
#else
#define debug_print(...) printf(__VA_ARGS__)
#endif

[phillipjohnston]

Whoops, corrected printf(...) to printf(__VA_ARGS__)

Thank you .. :)

Sometimes i do this on a per-file basis for fine grained control. For application wide control i would make a new header like debug_print.h. In that you could include the printf header. Your source files will include the debug_printf.h header

Cheers,
