2001</dl>This document explains how to log some information (into the screen, into a file or to a logging server), e.g. in order to debug your code. +<p> +<a name="basic_debug"><h2>Basic usage of the debugging system</h2></a> + The debugging sytem allows to log information at various levels. Include the header file "<a class="el" href="debug_8h.html">nel/misc/debug.h</a>". +<p> +The main functionalities are offered by the macros nldebug, nlinfo, nlwarning and also nlerror and nlassert, and by their variant forms (see <a class="el" href="debug_8h.html">debug.h</a>). They allow to display strings, with open arguments, using the "printf" syntax. In the default behaviour, the text passed to nldebug is displayed into stdout in NL_DEBUG mode, but not in NL_RELEASE. The logged texts are also written into a file called "log.log" in the working directory. These macros print the strings with an information header. +<p> +Example : <div class="fragment"><pre> sint32 age = -2; + <a class="code" href="debug_8h.html#a0">nldebug</a>( <font class="stringliteral">"Toto is %d years old"</font>, age ); + <font class="keywordflow">if</font> ( age < 0 ) + { + <a class="code" href="debug_8h.html#a3">nlerror</a>( <font class="stringliteral">"Invalid age for toto : %d"</font>, age ); + + <font class="comment">// the program will not come here because nlerror throws an exception to exit</font> + } + + STDOUT (logger thread_id <a class="code" href="cf__lexical_8cpp.html#a95">file</a> line: debug_string): + DBG 1234 myfile.cpp 10: Toto is -2 years old + ERR 1234 myfile.cpp 13: Invalid age for <a class="code" href="namespaceNLMISC.html#a294">toto</a> : -2 + Abort + + FILE OUTPUT (date time logger debug_string): + 01/04/11 18:24:50 DBG: Toto is -2 years old + 01/04/11 18:24:50 ERR: Invalid age for <a class="code" href="namespaceNLMISC.html#a294">toto</a> : -2 +</pre></div> +<p> +Because NeL allows to create multithreaded programs, these macros use mutual exclusions (mutex) to ensure no data is corrupted and the displayed text not interlaced. +<p> +<a name="adv_log"><h2>Advanced usage of the logging system</h2></a> + +<p> +You may want to customize the logging system directly, for your own needs. Include "<a class="el" href="log_8h.html">nel/misc/log.h</a>". +<p> +<a name="init_log"><h3>Initialization</h3></a> + If your program is not a "service" in the NeL terms (i.e. if it is not built on <a class="el" href="classNLNET_1_1IService.html">NLNET::IService</a>), first call createDebug() to create the basic global loggers <em>ErrorLog</em>, <em>WarningLog</em>, <em>InfoLog</em>, <em>DebugLog</em> and <em>AssertLog</em> (the ones that are used by the nlerror, nlwarning, nlinfo, nldebug and nlassert macros). +<p> +Then, you can attach some displayers to the global loggers (<a class="el" href="classNLMISC_1_1CLog.html">NLMISC::CLog</a> objects).<ul> +<li><a class="el" href="classNLMISC_1_1CStdDisplayer.html">NLMISC::CStdDisplayer</a> is for stdout (the console, the VC++ output window...). It is attached by default to all of the five logger objects mentionned above.<li><a class="el" href="classNLMISC_1_1CFileDisplayer.html">NLMISC::CFileDisplayer</a> is for a file.<li><a class="el" href="classNLMISC_1_1CMsgBoxDisplayer.html">NLMISC::CMsgBoxDisplayer</a> is for a message box.<li><a class="el" href="classNLNET_1_1CNetDisplayer.html">NLNET::CNetDisplayer</a> is for a logging server (see CLogService in the nelns documentation).<li>You can can create your own displayer, in order to print the logged text onto a new target (for example, see the class CChatDisplayer in Snowballs 0.2) or to customize the filter on the header.</ul> +Example (we assume CNetDisplayer allows to log via the network): <div class="fragment"><pre> <a class="code" href="namespaceNLMISC.html#a247">createDebug</a>(); <font class="comment">// automatically done in a "service"</font> + <a class="code" href="classNLNET_1_1CNetDisplayer.html">NLNET::CNetDisplayer</a> *nd = <font class="keyword">new</font> CNetDisplayer(); <font class="comment">// the address of the Logging Server is automatically retrieved using the Naming Service</font> + <font class="keywordflow">if</font> ( nd-><a class="code" href="classNLNET_1_1CNetDisplayer.html#a3">connected</a>() ) <font class="comment">// this line is optional: here we don't want the displayer to attempt other connections if the first one failed</font> + { + NLMISC::DebugLog.addDisplayer( nd ); + } +</pre></div> +<p> +<a name="use_log"><h3>Logging information</h3></a> + +<p> +How to log a string without repeating the header ?
