- An object of this class is used by default to show the log messages created
- by using wxLogMessage(), wxLogError() and other logging functions. It
- doesn't display the messages logged by them immediately however but
- accumulates all messages logged during an event handler execution and then
- shows them all at once when its Flush() method is called during the idle
- time processing. This has the important advantage of showing only a single
- dialog to the user even if several messages were logged because of a single
- error as it often happens (e.g. a low level function could log a message
- because it failed to open a file resulting in its caller logging another
- message due to the failure of higher level operation requiring the use of
- this file). If you need to force the display of all previously logged
- messages immediately you can use wxLog::FlushActive() to force the dialog
- display.
+ /**
+ Sets the specified log target as the active one.
- Also notice that if an error message is logged when several informative
- messages had been already logged before, the informative messages are
- discarded on the assumption that they are not useful -- and may be
- confusing and hence harmful -- any more after the error. The warning
- and error messages are never discarded however and any informational
- messages logged after the first error one are also kept (as they may
- contain information about the error recovery). You may override DoLog()
- method to change this behaviour.
+ Returns the pointer to the previous active log target (may be @NULL).
+ To suppress logging use a new instance of wxLogNull not @NULL. If the
+ active log target is set to @NULL a new default log target will be
+ created when logging occurs.
- At any rate, it is possible that that several messages were accumulated
- before this class Flush() method is called. If this is the case, Flush()
- uses a custom dialog which shows the last message directly and allows the
- user to view the previously logged ones by expanding the "Details"
- wxCollapsiblePane inside it. This custom dialog also provides the buttons
- for copying the log messages to the clipboard and saving them to a file.
+ @see SetThreadActiveTarget()
+ */
+ static wxLog* SetActiveTarget(wxLog* logtarget);
- However if only a single message is present when Flush() is called, just a
- wxMessageBox() is used to show it. This has the advantage of being closer
- to the native behaviour but it doesn't give the user any possibility to
- copy or save the message (except for the recent Windows versions where @c
- Ctrl-C may be pressed in the message box to copy its contents to the
- clipboard) so you may want to override DoShowSingleMessage() to customize
- wxLogGui -- the dialogs sample shows how to do this.

/**
- @class wxLog
-
- 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.
-
- Otherwise, it is completely hidden behind the @e wxLogXXX() functions and
- you may not even know about its existence.
-
- @section overview_wxLog_deriving 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. 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).
- 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).
- Flush() shows them all and clears the buffer contents.
- This function doesn't do anything if the buffer is already empty.
- See also:
- @li Flush()
- @li FlushActive()
-
- @section overview_wxLog_Trace_Masks Using trace masks
-
- 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.
- 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.
- 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
-
- will log the message if it was preceded by
-
- @code
- wxLog::AddTraceMask( wxTRACE_OleCalls);
- @endcode
+ @class wxLogWindow
- 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
- 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 disables timestamping of the messages completely.

- @note Timestamping 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, please
- use SetTimestamp() explicitly.
-
- @section overview_wxLog_Target Manipulating the log target
-
- The functions in this section work with and manipulate the active log
- target. The OnLog() is called by the @e wxLogXXX() functions
- and invokes the DoLog() of the active log target if any.
- 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. See also
- @li OnLog()
- @li GetActiveTarget()
- @li SetActiveTarget()

+ An object of this class is used by default to show the log messages created
+ by using wxLogMessage(), wxLogError() and other logging functions. It
+ doesn't display the messages logged by them immediately however but
+ accumulates all messages logged during an event handler execution and then
+ shows them all at once when its Flush() method is called during the idle
+ time processing. This has the important advantage of showing only a single
+ dialog to the user even if several messages were logged because of a single
+ error as it often happens (e.g. a low level function could log a message
+ because it failed to open a file resulting in its caller logging another
+ message due to the failure of higher level operation requiring the use of
+ this file). If you need to force the display of all previously logged
+ messages immediately you can use wxLog::FlushActive() to force the dialog
+ display.
+
+ Also notice that if an error message is logged when several informative
+ messages had been already logged before, the informative messages are
+ discarded on the assumption that they are not useful -- and may be
+ confusing and hence harmful -- any more after the error. The warning
+ and error messages are never discarded however and any informational
+ messages logged after the first error one are also kept (as they may
+ contain information about the error recovery). You may override DoLog()
+ method to change this behaviour.
+
+ At any rate, it is possible that that several messages were accumulated
+ before this class Flush() method is called. If this is the case, Flush()
+ uses a custom dialog which shows the last message directly and allows the
+ user to view the previously logged ones by expanding the "Details"
