Struct Silent 

pub struct Silent;

A no-op (no-operation) implementation of LoggerImpl.

SilentLogger satisfies the logger interface while effectively discarding all log messages. This is useful for:

• Testing: Disabling log output during unit tests.
• Defaults: Providing a safe, “do-nothing” fallback logger.
• Performance: Avoiding conditional “if logger.is_some()” checks in hot paths.

Implementations

impl Silent

pub fn new() -> Box<Self>

Creates a new, heap-allocated instance of SilentLogger.

This is a convenience constructor that returns the logger inside a Box, making it directly compatible with Logger::new().

Example

let logger = Logger::new(SilentLogger::new());

Trait Implementations

impl LoggerImpl for Silent

fn status(&self) -> LoggerStatus

Always returns LoggerStatus::Running.

Since the SilentLogger cannot fail in its mission to do nothing, it is perpetually in a healthy state.

fn log(&self, _message: Message)

Discards the incoming Message immediately.

This method is essentially a “black hole.” The underscore in _message ensures the compiler does not warn about the unused variable while the message is dropped at the end of the scope.

fn as_any(&self) -> &dyn Any

Returns the SilentLogger instance as a [dyn Any].
