- @class wxLogWindow
+ @class wxLogFormatter
- This class represents a background log window: to be precise, it collects all
- log messages in the log frame which it manages but also passes them on to the
- log target which was active at the moment of its creation. This allows you, for
- example, to show all the log messages in a frame but still continue to process
- them normally by showing the standard log dialog.
+ wxLogFormatter class is used to format the log messages. It implements the
+ default formatting and can be derived from to create custom formatters.
+
+ The default implementation formats the message into a string containing
+ the time stamp, level-dependent prefix and the message itself.
+
+ 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
+
+ the log output could be something like:
+
+ @verbatim
+ [7872] d:\testApp\src\testApp.cpp(85) : *** Application started ***

- 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.
+ (Almost) for internal use only: it is supposed to be called by the
+ application shutdown code (where you don't want the log target to be
+ automatically created anymore).
- 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.

- 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

- wxCollapsiblePane inside it. This custom dialog also provides the buttons
- for copying the log messages to the clipboard and saving them to a file.
+ /**
+ Returns the pointer to the active log target (may be @NULL).
- 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.

+ the derived classes if they need to call DoLogRecord() on another log
+ object (they can, of course, just use wxLog::DoLogRecord() call syntax
+ to call it on the object itself). It should not be used for logging new
+ messages which can be only sent to the currently active logger using
+ OnLog() which also checks if the logging (for this level) is enabled
+ while this method just directly calls DoLog().
- There are several methods which may be overridden in the derived class to
- customize log messages handling: DoLogRecord(), DoLogTextAtLevel() and
- DoLogText().
+ Example of use of this class from wxLogChain:
+ @code
+ void wxLogChain::DoLogRecord(wxLogLevel level,
+ const wxString& msg,
+ const wxLogRecordInfo& info)
+ {
+ // let the previous logger show it
+ if ( m_logOld && IsPassingMessages() )
+ m_logOld->LogRecord(level, msg, info);
- 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().
+ // and also send it to the new one
+ if ( m_logNew && m_logNew != this )
+ m_logNew->LogRecord(level, msg, info);
+ }
+ @endcode
- 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).
+ @since 2.9.1
+ */
+ void LogRecord(wxLogLevel level, const wxString& msg, const wxLogRecordInfo& info);
- 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).
+protected:
+ /**
+ @name Logging callbacks.
- Flush() shows them all and clears the buffer contents.
- This function doesn't do anything if the buffer is already empty.
+ The functions which should be overridden by custom log targets.
- @see FlushActive()
+ When defining a new log target, you have a choice between overriding
+ DoLogRecord(), which provides maximal flexibility, DoLogTextAtLevel()
+ which can be used if you don't intend to change the default log
+ messages formatting but want to handle log messages of different levels
+ differently or, in the simplest case, DoLogText().
+ */

+ /**
+ Called to log a new record.
- @section log_tracemasks Using trace masks
+ Any log message created by wxLogXXX() functions is passed to this
+ method of the active log target. The default implementation prepends
+ the timestamp and, for some log levels (e.g. error and warning), the
+ corresponding prefix to @a msg and passes it to DoLogTextAtLevel().
- 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.
+ You may override this method to implement custom formatting of the
+ log messages or to implement custom filtering of log messages (e.g. you
+ could discard all log messages coming from the given source file).
+ */
+ virtual void DoLogRecord(wxLogLevel level,

+ const wxLogRecordInfo& info);
- As for the (real) trace messages, their handling depends on the currently

- message, it will be logged, otherwise nothing happens.

+ @class wxLogChain
+
+ This simple class allows you to chain log sinks, that is to install a new sink but
+ keep passing log messages to the old one instead of replacing it completely as
+ wxLog::SetActiveTarget does.
+
+ It is especially useful when you want to divert the logs somewhere (for
+ example to a file or a log window) but also keep showing the error messages
+ using the standard dialogs as wxLogGui does by default.
+
+ Example of usage:
@code
- wxLog::AddTraceMask( wxTRACE_OleCalls);
- @endcode
+ wxLogChain *logChain = new wxLogChain(new wxLogStderr);
- 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.

+ @class wxLogGui
+
+ This is the default log target for the GUI wxWidgets applications.
+
+ Please see @ref overview_log_customize for explanation of how to change the
+ default log target.
+
+ 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"
+ wxCollapsiblePane inside it. This custom dialog also provides the buttons
+ for copying the log messages to the clipboard and saving them to a file.
+
+ 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 DoShowSingleLogMessage() to
+ customize wxLogGui -- the dialogs sample shows how to do this.

- @note Since both the mask and the format string are strings, this might

- two leading string parameters, e.g. by adding a bogus integer (with
- its "%d" format string).
