/**
- @class wxLog
+ @class wxLogFormatter
- wxLog class defines the interface for the @e log targets used by wxWidgets
- logging functions as explained in the @ref overview_log.
- The only situations when you need to directly use this class is when you want
- to derive your own log target because the existing ones don't satisfy your
- needs. Another case is if you wish to customize the behaviour of the standard
- logging classes (all of which respect the wxLog settings): for example, set
- which trace messages are logged and which are not or change (or even remove
- completely) the timestamp on the messages.
+ wxLogFormatter class is used to format the log messages. It implements the
+ default formatting and can be derived from to create custom formatters.
- Otherwise, it is completely hidden behind the @e wxLogXXX() functions and
- you may not even know about its existence.
+ The default implementation formats the message into a string containing
+ the time stamp, level-dependent prefix and the message itself.
- @note For console-mode applications, the default target is wxLogStderr, so
- that all @e wxLogXXX() functions print on @c stderr when @c wxUSE_GUI = 0.
+ To change it, you can derive from it and override its Format() method. For
+ example, to include the thread id in the log messages you can use
+ @code
+ class LogFormatterWithThread : public wxLogFormatter
+ {
+ virtual wxString Format(wxLogLevel level,
+ const wxString& msg,
+ const wxLogRecordInfo& info) const
+ {
+ return wxString::Format("[%d] %s(%d) : %s",
+ info.threadId, info.filename, info.line, msg);
+ }
+ };
+ @endcode
+ And then associate it with wxLog instance using its SetFormatter(). Then,
+ if you call:
+ @code
+ wxLogMessage(_("*** Application started ***"));
+ @endcode
- @section log_derivingyours Deriving your own log target
+ the log output could be something like:
- There are several methods which may be overridden in the derived class to
- customize log messages handling: DoLogRecord(), DoLogTextAtLevel() and
- DoLogText().
+ @verbatim
+ [7872] d:\testApp\src\testApp.cpp(85) : *** Application started ***
+ @endverbatim
- 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().
+ @library{wxbase}
+ @category{logging}
- 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).
+ @see @ref overview_log
- There also functions to support message buffering. Why are they needed?
- Some of wxLog implementations, most notably the standard wxLogGui class,
- buffer the messages (for example, to avoid showing the user a zillion of modal
- message boxes one after another -- which would be really annoying).
+ @since 2.9.4
+*/
+class wxLogFormatter
+{
+public:
+ /**
+ The default ctor does nothing.
+ */
+ wxLogFormatter();
- Flush() shows them all and clears the buffer contents.
- This function doesn't do anything if the buffer is already empty.
- @see FlushActive()
+ /**
+ This function creates the full log message string.
+ Override it to customize the output string format.
- @section log_tracemasks Using trace masks
+ @param level
+ The level of this log record, e.g. ::wxLOG_Error.
+ @param msg
+ The log message itself.
+ @param info
+ All the other information (such as time, component, location...)
+ associated with this log record.
- The functions below allow some limited customization of wxLog behaviour
- without writing a new log target class (which, aside from being a matter of
- several minutes, allows you to do anything you want).
- The verbose messages are the trace messages which are not disabled in the
- release mode and are generated by wxLogVerbose().
- They are not normally shown to the user because they present little interest,
- but may be activated, for example, in order to help the user find some program
- problem.
+ @return
+ The formated message.
+
+ @note
+ Time stamping is disabled for Visual C++ users in debug builds by
+ default because otherwise it would be impossible to directly go to the line
+ from which the log message was generated by simply clicking in the debugger
+ window on the corresponding error message. If you wish to enable it, override
+ FormatTime().
+ */
+ virtual wxString Format(wxLogLevel level,
+ const wxString& msg,
+ const wxLogRecordInfo& info) const;
- 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.
+protected:
+ /**
+ This function formats the time stamp part of the log message.
- For example,
- @code
- wxLogTrace( wxTRACE_OleCalls, "IFoo::Bar() called" );
- @endcode
+ Override this function if you need to customize just the time stamp.
- will log the message if it was preceded by:
+ @param time
+ Time to format.
- @code
- wxLog::AddTraceMask( wxTRACE_OleCalls);
- @endcode
+ @return
+ The formated time string, may be empty.
+ */
+ virtual wxString FormatTime(time_t time) const;
+};
- The standard trace masks are given in wxLogTrace() documentation.
-
- Finally, the @e wxLog::DoLog() function automatically prepends a time stamp
- to all the messages. The format of the time stamp may be changed: it can be
- any string with % specifications fully described in the documentation of the
- 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 or calling the shortcut wxLog::DisableTimestamp(), disables timestamping
- of the messages completely.

-
- @section log_target Manipulating the log target
-
- The functions in this section work with and manipulate the active log
- target.
-
- Get/Set methods are used to install/query the current active target and,
- finally, DontCreateOnDemand() disables the automatic creation of a standard
- log target if none actually exists. It is only useful when the application
- is terminating and shouldn't be used in other situations because it may
- easily lead to a loss of messages.

+ desired trace masks with wxLog::AddTraceMask() or by setting the
@ref overview_envvars "@c WXTRACE environment variable".
The predefined string trace masks used by wxWidgets are:
@itemdef{ wxTRACE_OleCalls, Trace OLE method calls (Win32 only) }
@endDefList
- @note Since both the mask and the format string are strings, this might
- lead to function signature confusion in some cases: if you intend to
- call the format string only version of wxLogTrace(), add a "%s"
- format string parameter and then supply a second string parameter for
- that "%s", the string mask version of wxLogTrace() will erroneously
- get called instead, since you are supplying two string parameters to
- the function. In this case you'll unfortunately have to avoid having
- two leading string parameters, e.g. by adding a bogus integer (with
- its "%d" format string).
