--log arg |
Set default log level to one of Off, Always, Error, Warn, Info, Default, or Debug. The default value is Default. Setting to Off turns off all logging. Other options enable logging at that level of priority or higher. For example, at Default level, messages at levels Always, Error, Warn, Info, and Default are logged to file. Unless the Advanced Options panel is shown from the Log context menu, the Log view in the application always hides messages at levels Default and Debug. |

Evoke Headless
Evoke Headless shares the same settings and preferences as Evoke and has additional options for handling error reporting. In the event of an application crash, Evoke Headless is configured by default to send a report to Vicon, so that the problem can be investigated and fixed. The following command line options control this behavior:
| Option | Effect |
|---|---|
|
--crash-handler-email |
Specify an email address for correspondence in error reports sent to Vicon Support. |
|
--no-crash-handler-upload |
Turn off automatically sending error reports to Vicon Support. Crash reports are still saved to These reports may be sent to Vicon at a later date with the OMG Error Reporting tool: C:\Program Files\Vicon\Evoke1.#\OMGErrorReporting.exe --upload-all |
