pw_assert_log#

pw_assert_BACKEND#

This assert backend implements the pw_assert:check facade, by routing the PW_CHECK()/PW_CRASH() macros into PW_LOG with the PW_LOG_LEVEL_FATAL log level. This is an easy way to tokenize your assert messages, by using the pw_log_tokenized log backend for logging, then using pw_assert_log to route the tokenized messages into the tokenized log handler.

To use this module:

  1. Set your assert backend: pw_assert_BACKEND = dir_pw_assert_log

  2. Ensure your logging backend knows how to handle the assert failure flag

pw_assert_LITE_BACKEND#

This assert backend implements the pw_assert:assert facade, by routing the PW_ASSERT() macros into PW_LOG with the PW_LOG_LEVEL_FATAL log level. This is an easy way to forward your asserts to a native macro assert API if it is already constexpr safe such as on Android.

Warning

When building with Soong (using Android.bp), some Pigweed modules are listing pw_log_null_headers in their header_lib list. This means that the PW_CHECK, PW_ASSERT, and PW_CRASH macros that depend on logs are ignored. Make sure to use the correct log backend in your final target, such as the pw_log_android backend which supports crashing on PW_LOG_LEVEL_FATAL. See b/324266698.
