traceon traceoff

The traceon and traceoff routines are used to enable or disable tracing.

Syntax

   #include <curses.h>



   traceoff();

   traceon();

Return Values

OK: Successful completion.
ERR: An error occurred.

Description

The traceon() and traceoff() routines turn on or turn off tracing, respectively. Since the volume of output produced by these routines can be very large, limit the area traced at a given time.

The output generated by these routines is stored in a file called trace.out. The information provided by the trace.out file is the name of the function and its parameters when entered and the function name and its return value upon exit.
