Here are some useful macros around NSLog I use a lot:
#ifdef DEBUG
# define DLog(fmt, ...) NSLog((@"%s [Line %d] " fmt), __PRETTY_FUNCTION__, __LINE__, ##__VA_ARGS__);
#else
# define DLog(...)
#endif
// ALog always displays output regardless of the DEBUG setting
#define ALog(fmt, ...) NSLog((@"%s [Line %d] " fmt), __PRETTY_FUNCTION__, __LINE__, ##__VA_ARGS__);
The DLog macro is used to only output when the DEBUG variable is set (-DDEBUG in the projects’s C flags for the debug confirguration).
ALog will always output text (like the regular NSLog).
The output (e.g. ALog(@”Hello world”) ) will look like this:
-[LibraryController awakeFromNib] [Line 364] Hello world
