[erlang-questions] how can I make mnesia/sasl keep quiet

[Niclas Eklund]

Hi!

Usually you should avoid application:set_env/3 if it's not your own 
application.

From the reference manual:

"Warning:
        Use this function only if you know what you are doing, that is, on 
your own applications. It is very application and configuration parameter 
dependent when and how often the value is read by the application, and 
careless use of this function may put the application in a weird, 
inconsistent, and malfunctioning state."

Perhaps it works now, depending how SASL handles the parameter, but 
that might change at any given time without a warning.

Best regards,

Niclas @ Erlang/OTP
