DaveWoodCom / XCGLogger

A debug log framework for use in Swift projects. Allows you to log details to the console (and optionally a file), just like you would have with NSLog() or print(), but with additional information, such as the date, function name, filename and line number.

Question: Can the logger be instructed to capture ios error messages?

The logger captures the developer's log messages. However, the errors we see in the crash report, such as "nil pointer", are more indicative. Is XCG logger designed for that but I just don't know how to use it? Thanks!

commented

When you talking about "nil pointer", did you use force cast or unwrap with !? (You must not use it except some exceptions)
It's a programming error. That cannot be caught.

Thanks for your comments. You are right. I gave a poor example. There are other error messages I'd like to capture into the log file, such as

[MC] System group container for systemgroup.com.apple.configurationprofiles path is ...

Unfortunately not. Those are logs added by Apple and (as far as I know) there's no way to intercept them.
