Parameterlog
TypeText string
Value

The log file or directory name is where the log file for each CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP execution session is stored.

If is specified, it
Panel
titleLog specified as a file name

It is possible to overwrite the existing log file or extend it using the "log_method" parameter. See below for details.

(info) The "log_method" parameter is effective only when a single log file is specified, not a directory.

Example:

set session log="C:\Charon\es40prod.log"
If an existing directory is specified,
Panel
titleLog specified as a directory

CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP automatically creates individual log files for each CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP execution session. If the log parameter is omitted CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP creates a log file for each CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP execution session in the directory where the emulator was started. In these two cases, the log rotation mode is enabled, meaning a new log file is created each time the virtual machine is started and when the log file size exceeds the one specified (see log_file_size) and/or when log file is older than a specified number of days (see log_rotation_period).

(info) A shortcut located in the same directory will be created, pointing to the active log file. Its name depends on the settings defined, configuration_name and hw_model

If only a directory name is specified in the "log" parameter and the "configuration_name" parameter of the session is specified, the log file name is composed as follows:

<configuration_name>-YYYY-MM-DD-hh-mm-ss-xxxxxxxxx.log

If only a directory name is specified in the "log" parameter and the "configuration_name" parameter is omitted, the log file name will have the following format:

<hw_model>-YYYY-MM-DD-hh-mm-ss-xxxxxxxxx.log

xxxxxxxxx is an increasing decimal integer, starting from 000000000 to separate log files with the same time of creation (in case the log is being created faster than one log file per second).

(warning) Only existing directory can be used as a value of the "log" parameter. No trailing \ character allowed.

Example:

set session log="C:\Charon\Logs"

log_method

Parameterlog_method
TypeText string
Value
  • "overwrite" (default)
  • "append"

Determines if the previous log information is maintained.

Info

This parameter must be specified only in addition to “log” parameter on the same line.

This parameter is applicable only if the CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP log is stored to a file that is specified explicitly with the "log" parameter.

Example:

set session log="log.txt" log_method="append"
