//! This is just a shim (thin wrapper) around the [crate::tracing_logging] module.
//!
//! You can use the functions in this module or just use the [mod@crate::init_tracing]
//! functions directly, along with using [tracing::info!], [tracing::debug!], etc. macros.
//!
//! This file is here as a convenience for backward compatibility w/ the old logging
//! system.

const LOG_FILE_NAME: &str = "log.txt";

/// Logging is **DISABLED** by **default**.
///
/// If you don't call this function w/ a value other than
/// [tracing_core::LevelFilter::OFF], then logging won't be enabled. It won't matter if
/// you call any of the other logging functions in this module, or directly use the
/// [tracing::info!], [tracing::debug!], etc. macros.
///
/// This is a convenience method to setup Tokio [`tracing_subscriber`] with `stdout` as
/// the output destination. This method also ensures that the [`crate::SharedWriter`] is
/// used for concurrent writes to `stdout`. You can also use the [`TracingConfig`] struct
/// to customize the behavior of the tracing setup, by choosing whether to display output
/// to `stdout`, `stderr`, or a [`crate::SharedWriter`]. By default, both display and file
/// logging are enabled. You can also customize the log level, and the file path and
/// prefix for the log file.
