## 5.17 trace option

This is the "tracing level of detail" option.

This option has some usage constraints. It:

- This option takes a keyword as its argument. The argument sets an enumeration value that can be tested by comparing the option value macro (OPT_VALUE_TRACE). The available keywords are:

      nothing      templates    block-macros
      expressions  everything

This option will cause AutoGen to display a trace of its template processing. There are five levels:

``nothing'`

  Does no tracing at all (default)

``templates'`

  Traces the invocation of `DEFINE`d macros and `INCLUDE`s

``block-macros'`

  Traces all block macros. The above, plus `IF`, `FOR`, `CASE` and `WHILE`.

``expressions'`

  Displays the results of expression evaluations

``everything'`

  Displays the invocation of every AutoGen macro, even `TEXT` macros.
