Returns: True on success.

◆ SetMemoryAllocationThreshold()

static MAXON_METHOD void SetMemoryAllocationThreshold ( UInt warnMemoryAllocationThreshold )

◆ SetDebugErrorObserver()

static MAXON_METHOD void* SetDebugErrorObserver ( Delegate< void(const ErrorInterface *)> && observer )

static

Sets a callback which shall be invoked when an error occurs. This should be used only for debugging purposes. For example, if you want to have a DebugStop on any error during a function call, you can write:

void* callback = System::SetDebugErrorObserver([] (const ErrorInterface* error) { DiagnosticOutput("@", error); DebugStop(); });
SomeFunctionToDebug();
System::ResetDebugErrorObserver(callback);

You could even make the DebugStop() depend on the type of the error by checking the type of the error parameter.

You should clear the error callback after the code to debug by calling ResetErrorCallback().

[in] observer Observer for errors.

Returns: Pointer to the installed observer or nullptr on failure.
