Run the hilog -w start -f ckTest -l 1M -n 5 -m zlib -j 11 command.

The log file is saved in the /data/log/hilog/ directory.

Parameters:

-**-w**: Starts a log flushing task. **start** means to start the task, and **stop** means to stop the task.
-**-f**: Sets the log file name.
-**-l**: Sets the size of a single log file. The unit can be B, KB, MB, or GB.
-**-n**: Sets the maximum number of log files. When the number of log files exceeds the specified value, the earliest log file will be overwritten. The value range is [2,1000].
-**-m**: Specifies the log file compression algorithm.
-**-j**: Specifies the task ID. The value ranges from **10** to **0xffffffffff**.
For more details about parameters, run the **hilog --help** command.

How do I print only HiLog information of the current application?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

Solution

Use the hilog command line tool to filter the logs of the current application.

hilog -T xxx: filtering logs by tag.

hilog –D xxx: filtering logs by domain.

hilog -e: matching log content based on the tag, domain, and pid by using regular expressions. Multi-layered filtering, combination filtering, and reverse filtering are supported.

How do I locate the fault when the application crashes?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

Solution

Method 1: Locate the crash-related code based on the service log.

Method 2: View the error information in the crash file. The crash file is located at /data/log/faultlog/faultlogger/.

Is HiLog or console recommended for log printing? How do I set the domain if HiLog is used?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

The console encapsulates the HiLog system with the default parameter configuration. It is mainly used in the application development and debugging phase.

HiLog is recommended because it supports log classification and processing in a unified manner. For details, see @ohos.hilog (HiLog).

The value of the domain parameter in the HiLog API ranges from 0x0 to 0xFFFF. You are advised to customize the value as required.

What is the maximum length of a log record when HiLog is used? Is it configurable?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

The maximum length of a log record is 1,024 characters, and it is not changeable.

What is the purpose of using private in printing of formatted logs?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

Symptom

private is displayed in HiLog information when format parameters are of the %d or %s type in C++.

Solution

When format parameters such as %d and %s are directly used, the standard system uses private to replace the actual data for printing by default to prevent data leakage. To print the actual data, replace %d with %{public}d or replace %s with %{public}s.

What should I do if the hilog.debug log cannot be printed?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

Solution

Run hdc std shell hilog -b D to turn on the debugging switch.

Can I separate multiple strings by spaces in the tag parameter of the HiLog API?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

Yes.

How does HiLog print the log information marked with the {private} tag?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

Solution

To print the log information marked with the {private} tag, run the command to disable the privacy mode: hdc shell hilog -p off

What are the cash log collection and performance troubleshooting functions provided by the HiLog system?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

Symptom

What are the cash log collection and performance troubleshooting functions provided by the HiLog system?

Solution

FaultLogger: collects crash logs. For details, see FaultLogger.

HiChecker: detects potential faults. For details, see HiChecker.

hiTraceMeter: implements performance tracing. For details, see hiTraceMeter.

How do I control log output?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

Symptom

The output log varies according to environment requirements.

Solution

You can run the following command to adjust the log level to print the desired logs:

hdc shell hilog -L

Is there a limit on the tag length of HiLog?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

The length of the entire tag is 32.

How do I view the appfreeze information in the logs?

Applicable to: OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta (API version 9)

Try the following procedure:

Check the reason for the event. Fault location methods and examples are provided specifically to different reasons.
Check the MSG information.
Check the application stack information in OpenStacktraceCatcher as well as the HiLog information for the operation that leads to the event.
Check the PeerBinderCatcher process to see if the current process is suspended by the peer binder. If there is a synchronous wait related to the current process, the corresponding PeerBinder Stacktrace information will be logged. It contains the stack information of the peer process that leads to suspension of the current process.
Check the CPU usage of system processes and the memory usage of the current process.
