qb_log_from_external_source - Man Page

This function is to import logs from other code (like libraries) that provide a callback with their logs.

Synopsis

#include <qb/qblog.h>

void qb_log_from_external_source(
    const char   *function,  /* originating function name */
    const char   *filename,  /* originating filename */
    const char   *format,    /* format string */
    uint8_t       priority,  /* this takes syslog priorities. */
    uint32_t      lineno,    /* file line number */
    /*
     * this is a uint32_t that you can use with
     * qb_log_tags_stringify_fn_set() to "tag" a log message with a feature or sub-system then you can use
     * "%g" in the format specifer to print it out.
     */
    uint32_t      tags,
    ...           
);

Description

Note

the performance of this will not impress you, as the filtering is done on each log message, not beforehand. So try doing basic pre-filtering.
