Fields
| Name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Quiet | 0 | The most minimal output |
| Minimal | 1 | Relatively little output |

| Detailed | 3 | Relatively verbose, but not exhaustive |
| Diagnostic | 4 | The most verbose and informative verbosity |
Remarks
The level of detail (i.e. verbosity) of an event log is entirely controlled by the logger generating the log -- a logger will be directed to keep its verbosity at a certain level, based on user preferences, but a logger is free to choose the events it logs for each verbosity level.
LOGGING GUIDELINES FOR EACH VERBOSITY LEVEL: 1) Quiet -- only display a summary at the end of build 2) Minimal -- only display errors, warnings, high importance events and a build summary 3) Normal -- display all errors, warnings, high importance events, some status events, and a build summary 4) Detailed -- display all errors, warnings, high and normal importance events, all status events, and a build summary 5) Diagnostic -- display all events, and a build summary
