What’s new

Migration guide

Added new customizable backend logger

With version 1.40 of Gameface, a IBackendLogHandler* LogHandler has been added to the struct BaseBackendSettings. The new setting adds the ability to integrate your logging system in the backend by inheriting the IBackendLogHandler interface. If you choose to keep the default backend logger, there won't be any modifications needed.

Backend logger interface

class IBackendLogHandler
{
public:
  virtual ~IBackendLogHandler() {}
  IBackendLogHandler() {}

  virtual void WriteLog(BackendLogSeverity severity, const char* message, size_t length) = 0;
};
