Description

Let the application developer print debug information on the debug output (for example, a console, a serial link or a file). The means to access this debug output is outside the scope of this specification and implementation-dependent.

A line feed character SHALL NOT be inserted automatically at the end of the string by the implementation.

Example:

debug(“[APP] value = ” + value + “\n”);

Arguments
