Hi!

Changing the debug level during runtime via MI would be awesome for debugging.

Hi Klaus,

we had implemented the changeable debug level during runtime when we used
SER. Later we moved to OpenSER and I did not propagate this feature to
OpenSER, because we almost never really needed this feature. But I can
easily provide a patch for OpenSER for this feature.

By the way, your description of how this feature can be implemented very
precisely describes how we implemented it. Yes, we put the debug variable
in shared memory.

Anatoly Pidruchny.

Hi!

i just wonder how this can be implemented. I'm not a programming guru (may
change after Paris ;-) but if I got it right the debug level ist stored in
a global variable (globals.h). This variable will be copied to all openser
processes and changing it in one process does not change it in other
processes.

Thus, to apply changes to all processes, the debug variable has to be in
shared memory. Is it possible to have a global variable (viewable from all
modules) in shard mem?

Any other ideas how this can be achieved?
