</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
The <STRONG>trace</STRONG> routines are used for debugging the ncurses
libraries, as well as applications which use the ncurses
libraries. These functions are normally available only
with the debugging library <EM>libncurses</EM><STRONG>_</STRONG><EM>g.a</EM>, but may be com-
piled into any model (shared, static, profile) by defining
the symbol <STRONG>TRACE</STRONG>.
The principal parts of this interface are the <STRONG>trace</STRONG> rou-
tine which selectively enables different tracing features,
and the <STRONG>_tracef</STRONG> routine which writes formatted data to the
<EM>trace</EM> file.
Calling <STRONG>trace</STRONG> with a nonzero parameter opens the file
<STRONG>trace</STRONG> in the current directory for output. The parameter
is formed by OR'ing values from the list of <STRONG>TRACE_</STRONG><EM>xxx</EM> def-
initions in <STRONG><curses.h></STRONG>. These include:
TRACE_DISABLE
turn off tracing.
TRACE_TIMES
trace user and system times of updates.
TRACE_TPUTS
trace tputs calls.
TRACE_UPDATE
trace update actions, old & new screens.
TRACE_MOVE
trace cursor movement and scrolling.
TRACE_CHARPUT
trace all character outputs.
TRACE_ORDINARY
trace all update actions. The old and new screen
contents are written to the trace file for each
refresh.
TRACE_CALLS
trace all curses calls. The parameters for each call
are traced, as well as return values.
TRACE_VIRTPUT
trace virtual character puts, i.e., calls to <STRONG>addch</STRONG>.
TRACE_IEVENT
trace low-level input processing, including timeouts.
TRACE_BITS
trace state of TTY control bits.
TRACE_ICALLS
trace internal/nested calls.
TRACE_CCALLS
trace per-character calls.
TRACE_DATABASE
trace read/write of terminfo/termcap data.
TRACE_ATTRS
trace changes to video attributes and colors.
TRACE_MAXIMUM
maximum trace level, enables all of the separate
trace features.
Some tracing features are enabled whenever the <STRONG>trace</STRONG>
parameter is nonzero. Some features overlap. The
specific names are used as a guideline.
</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
Routines which return a value are designed to be used as
parameters to the <STRONG>_tracef</STRONG> routine.
</PRE>
<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
These functions are not part of the XSI interface. Some
other curses implementations are known to have similar,
undocumented features, but they are not compatible with
ncurses.
