Abstract
This application relates generally to logging information, and more particularly to techniques for configuring a software product to have each log call in source code controllable at runtime. The source code can be preprocessed so that individual log calls in the source code can be identified and tracked. Information specifying locations of the log calls can be used to generate a bitmap indicating whether to write log messages (corresponding to the log calls) to a log file. The preprocessed source code can then be compiled into executable code, which can be packaged with the bitmap into an executable product such that the executable code can run based on the bitmap. While the executable code is executing, examples described herein can also allow the bitmap to be updated, allowing control during execution.
