push_error_handler: Push a new GDAL CPLError handler

In gdalraster: Bindings to 'GDAL'

Push a new GDAL CPLError handler

Description

push_error_handler() is a wrapper for CPLPushErrorHandler() in the GDAL Common Portability Library. This pushes a new error handler on the thread-local error handler stack. This handler will be used until removed with pop_error_handler(). A typical use is to temporarily set CPLQuietErrorHandler() which doesn't make any attempt to report passed error or warning messages, but will process debug messages via CPLDefaultErrorHandler.

Usage

push_error_handler(handler)

Arguments

handler

Character name of the error handler to push. One of quiet, logging or default.

Value

No return value, called for side effects.

Note

This function is for advanced use cases. It is intended for setting a temporary error handler in a limited segment of code. A global error handler specific to the R environment is in use by default.

Setting handler = "logging" will use CPLLoggingErrorHandler(), error handler that logs into the file defined by the CPL_LOG configuration option. Be sure that option is set when using this error handler.

This only affects error reporting from GDAL.
