@section log_derivingyours Deriving your own log target
- There are two functions which must be implemented by any derived class to
- actually process the log messages: DoLog() and DoLogString().
- The second function receives a string which just has to be output in some way
- and the easiest way to write a new log target is to override just this function
- in the derived class.
+ There are several methods which may be overridden in the derived class to
+ customize log messages handling: DoLogRecord(), DoLogTextAtLevel() and
+ DoLogText().
- If more control over the output format is needed, then the first function must
- be overridden which allows to construct custom messages depending on the log level
- or even do completely different things depending on the message severity
- (for example, throw away all messages except warnings and errors, show warnings
- on the screen and forward the error messages to the user's (or programmer's) cell
- phone - maybe depending on whether the timestamp tells us if it is day or
- night in the current time zone).
+ The last method is the simplest one: you should override it if you simply
+ want to redirect the log output elsewhere, without taking into account the
+ level of the message. If you do want to handle messages of different levels
+ differently, then you should override DoLogTextAtLevel().
+
+ Finally, if more control over the output format is needed, then the first
+ function must be overridden as it allows to construct custom messages
+ depending on the log level or even do completely different things depending
+ on the message severity (for example, throw away all messages except
+ warnings and errors, show warnings on the screen and forward the error
+ messages to the user's (or programmer's) cell phone -- maybe depending on
+ whether the timestamp tells us if it is day or night in the current time
+ zone).
There also functions to support message buffering. Why are they needed?
Some of wxLog implementations, most notably the standard wxLogGui class,
Flush() shows them all and clears the buffer contents.
This function doesn't do anything if the buffer is already empty.

@section log_tracemasks Using trace masks
but may be activated, for example, in order to help the user find some program
problem.
- As for the (real) trace messages, their handling depends on the settings of
- the (application global) @e trace mask which can either be specified using
- SetTraceMask(), GetTraceMask() and wxLogTrace() which takes an integer mask
- or using AddTraceMask() for string trace masks.
+ As for the (real) trace messages, their handling depends on the currently
+ enabled trace masks: if AddTraceMask() was called for the mask of the given
+ message, it will be logged, otherwise nothing happens.
- The difference between bit-wise and string trace masks is that a message using
- integer trace mask will only be logged if all bits of the mask are set in the
- current mask while a message using string mask will be logged simply if the
- mask had been added before to the list of allowed ones.
For example,
-
- @code
- wxLogTrace( wxTraceRefCount|wxTraceOleCalls, "Active object ref count: %d", nRef );
- @endcode
-
- will do something only if the current trace mask contains both @c wxTraceRefCount
- and @c wxTraceOle, but:
-
@code
wxLogTrace( wxTRACE_OleCalls, "IFoo::Bar() called" );
@endcode
wxLog::AddTraceMask( wxTRACE_OleCalls);
@endcode
- Using string masks is simpler and allows you to easily add custom ones, so this
- is the preferred way of working with trace messages. The integer trace mask is
- kept for compatibility and for additional (but very rarely needed) flexibility
- only.
-
The standard trace masks are given in wxLogTrace() documentation.
Finally, the @e wxLog::DoLog() function automatically prepends a time stamp
standard @e strftime() function. For example, the default format is
"[%d/%b/%y %H:%M:%S] " which gives something like "[17/Sep/98 22:10:16] "
(without quotes) for the current date. Setting an empty string as the time
- format disables timestamping of the messages completely.
