6.8.20SET DEBUG

#Syntax

#Description

Set the debug mechanism⁵⁹ to enabled or disabled. If enabled, debug messages will be displayed when executing operations, which should help the programmer to have a better understanding of the parameters HDFql is receiving, the operation performed, and the return value of this operation. Additionally, debug messages of the HDF5 library itself are displayed in case of an error. In case the keyword DEFAULT is specified, the debug mechanism is set to disabled (i.e. equivalent to specifying the keyword DISABLE).

#Parameter(s)

#Return

Nothing

#Example(s)

# enable debug mechanism (i.e. debug messages will be displayed when executing operations)

# disable debug mechanism (i.e. debug messages will not be displayed when executing operations)
