class UDestroyer< ULogger >

Detailed Description

This class is used to log messages with time on a console, in a file and/or with an event. At the start of the application, call ULogger::setType() with the type of the logger you want (see ULogger::Type, the type of the output can be changed at the run-time.). To use it, simply call the convenient macros UDEBUG(), UINFO(), UWARN(), UERROR(), UFATAL() depending of the severity of the message. You can disable some messages by setting the logger level ULogger::setLevel() to severity you want, defined by ULogger::Level. A fatal message will make the application to exit, printing the message on console (whatever the logger type) and posting a ULogEvent (synchronously... see UEventsManager::post()) before exiting.

The display of the logged messages can be modified:

When using a file logger (kTypeLogger), it can be useful in some application to buffer messages before writing them to hard drive (avoiding hard drive latencies). You can set ULogger::setBuffered() to true to do that. When the buffered messages will be written to file on appllciation exit (ULogger destructor) or when ULogger::flush() is called.

If you want the application to exit on a lower severity level than kFatal, you can set ULogger::setExitLevel() to any ULogger::Type you want.

Example:

 #include <utilite/ULogger.h>
 int main(int argc, char * argv[])
 {
    // Set the logger type. The choices are kTypeConsole,
    // kTypeFile or kTypeNoLog (nothing is logged).
    ULogger::setType(ULogger::kTypeConsole);

    // Set the logger severity level (kDebug, kInfo, kWarning, kError, kFatal).
    // All log entries under the severity level are not logged. Here,
    // only debug messages are not logged.
    ULogger::setLevel(ULogger::kInfo);

    // Use a predefined Macro to easy logging. It can be
    // called anywhere in the application as the logger is
    // a Singleton.
    UDEBUG("This message won't be logged because the "
           "severity level of the logger is set to kInfo.");

    UINFO("This message is logged.");

    UWARN("A warning message...");

    UERROR("An error message with code %d.", 42);

    return 0;
 }

Output:

 [ INFO] (2010-09-25 18:08:20) main.cpp:18::main() This message is logged.
 [ WARN] (2010-09-25 18:08:20) main.cpp:20::main() A warning message...
 [ERROR] (2010-09-25 18:08:20) main.cpp:22::main() An error message with code 42.

Another useful form of the ULogger is to use it with the UTimer class. Here an example:

 #include <utilite/ULogger.h>
 #include <utilite/UTimer.h>
 ...
 UTimer timer; // automatically starts
 // do some works for part A
 UINFO("Time for part A = %f s", timer.ticks());
 // do some works for part B
 UINFO("Time for part B = %f s", timer.ticks());
 // do some works for part C
 UINFO("Time for part C = %f s", timer.ticks());
 ...
