The Weird and The Wonderful

   

The Weird and The Wonderful forum is a place to post Coding Horrors, Worst Practices, and the occasional flash of brilliance.

We all come across code that simply boggles the mind. Lazy kludges, embarrassing mistakes, horrid workarounds and developers just not quite getting it. And then somedays we come across - or write - the truly sublime.

Post your Best, your worst, and your most interesting. But please - no programming questions . This forum is purely for amusement and discussions on code snippets. All actual programming questions will be removed.

Perhaps this is for debugging, but from what you have put it could work quite well anyway. It shows that only logs with error level of info or above (presume warning) are show to the user - and correct me if I am wrong but I think you should let the user no when an error has occurred (at level info or higher)

I presume there are levels such as 'Silent' or 'System' which will simply log the data in what ever storage it logs in
I may or may not be responsible for my own actions
