And of course, this won't help if Y2DEBUG is enabled. We would need a new datatype or a flag in the interpreter to fix it with Y2DEBUG enabled.
I don't think this can be done in the general case: Both the YCP interpreter and the UI are logging entire statements or statement snippets. You can never tell what part of that might contain confidential data like passwords.
Example:
UI::OpenDialog(`VBox(..., `Password( _( "Password:" ), "b1g*s3cr3t", ...);
In full debug mode, the YCP interpreter will write this to the log, and if there is a YCP or a UI syntax error or another UI exception, the offending statement (which might easily contain something like the above example) will be logged.
A nice feature would be to tell YCP that a string is a password and thus the string is never logged. ciao Arvin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help@opensuse.org
