Detailed Description

Base class for message handling.

The default behavior is described here: messages are printed, and (if the severity is sufficiently high) execution will be aborted. Inherit and redefine the methods print and checkSeverity to augment the behaviour.

Messages can be printed with or without a prefix; the prefix will consist of a source string, the external ID number, and a letter code, e.g., Clp6024W. A prefix makes the messages look less nimble but is very useful for "grep" etc.

Usage

The general approach to using the COIN messaging facility is as follows:

See, for example, CoinMessage.hpp and CoinMessage.cpp for an example of the first three steps. `Format codes' below has a simple example of printing a message.

External ID numbers and severity

CoinMessageHandler assumes the following relationship between the external ID number of a message and the severity of the message:

Log (detail) levels

The default behaviour is that a message will print if its detail level is less than or equal to the handler's log level. If all you want to do is set a single log level for the handler, use setLogLevel(int).

If you want to get fancy, here's how it really works: There's an array, logLevels_, which you can manipulate with setLogLevel(int,int). Each entry logLevels_[i] specifies the log level for messages of class i (see CoinMessages::class_). If logLevels_[0] is set to the magic number -1000 you get the simple behaviour described above, whatever the class of the messages. If logLevels_[0] is set to a valid log level (>= 0), then logLevels_[i] really is the log level for messages of class i.

Format codes

CoinMessageHandler can print integers (normal, long, and long long), doubles, characters, and strings. See the descriptions of the various << operators.

When processing a standard message with a format string, the formatting codes specified in the format string will be passed to the sprintf function, along with the argument. When generating a message with no format string, each << operator uses a simple format code appropriate for its argument. Consult the documentation for the standard printf facility for further information on format codes.

The special format code `%?' provides a hook to enable or disable printing. For each `%?' code, there must be a corresponding call to printing(bool). This provides a way to define optional parts in messages, delineated by the code `%?' in the format string. Printing can be suppressed for these optional parts, but any operands must still be supplied. For example, given the message string

"A message with%? an optional integer %d and%? a double %g."

installed in CoinMessages exampleMsgs with index 5, and CoinMessageHandler hdl, the code

hdl.message(5,exampleMsgs) ;
hdl.printing(true) << 42 ;
hdl.printing(true) << 53.5 << CoinMessageEol ;

will print

A message with an optional integer 42 and a double 53.5.

while

hdl.message(5,exampleMsgs) ;
hdl.printing(false) << 42 ;
hdl.printing(true) << 53.5 << CoinMessageEol ;

will print

A message with a double 53.5.

For additional examples of usage, see CoinMessageHandlerUnitTest in CoinMessageHandlerTest.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

virtual int CoinMessageHandler::print ( )
virtual

Print message, return 0 normally.

Reimplemented in MyMessageHandler.

virtual void CoinMessageHandler::checkSeverity ( )
virtual

Check message severity - if too bad then abort.

CoinMessageHandler& CoinMessageHandler::operator= ( const CoinMessageHandler )

Assignment operator.

virtual CoinMessageHandler* CoinMessageHandler::clone ( ) const
virtual

Clone.

Reimplemented in MyMessageHandler.

int CoinMessageHandler::detail ( int  messageNumber,
const CoinMessages normalMessage 
) const
inline

Get detail level of a message.

Definition at line 378 of file CoinMessageHandler.hpp.

int CoinMessageHandler::logLevel ( ) const
inline

Get current log (detail) level.

Definition at line 383 of file CoinMessageHandler.hpp.

void CoinMessageHandler::setLogLevel ( int  value)

Set current log (detail) level.

If the log level is equal or greater than the detail level of a message, the message will be printed. A rough convention for the amount of output expected is

  • 0 - none
  • 1 - minimal
  • 2 - normal low
  • 3 - normal high
  • 4 - verbose

Please assign log levels to messages accordingly. Log levels of 8 and above (8,16,32, etc.) are intended for selective debugging. The logical AND of the log level specified in the message and the current log level is used to determine if the message is printed. (In other words, you're using individual bits to determine which messages are printed.)

int CoinMessageHandler::logLevel ( int  which) const
inline

Get alternative log level.

Definition at line 406 of file CoinMessageHandler.hpp.

void CoinMessageHandler::setLogLevel ( int  which,
int  value

Definition at line 520 of file CoinMessageHandler.hpp.

CoinMessageHandler& CoinMessageHandler::message ( int  messageNumber,
const CoinMessages messages 
)

Start a message.

Look up the specified message. A prefix will be generated if enabled. The message will be printed if the current log level is equal or greater than the log level of the message.

CoinMessageHandler& CoinMessageHandler::message ( int  detail = -1)

Start or continue a message.

With detail = -1 (default), does nothing except return a reference to the handler. (I.e., msghandler.message() << "foo" is precisely equivalent to msghandler << "foo".) If msgDetail is >= 0, is will be used as the detail level to determine whether the message should print (assuming class 0).

This can be used with any of the << operators. One use is to start a message which will be constructed entirely from scratch. Another use is continuation of a message after code that interrupts the usual sequence of << operators.

CoinMessageHandler& CoinMessageHandler::message ( int  externalNumber,
const char *  source,
const char *  msg,
char  severity,
int  detail = -1 
)

Print a complete message.

Generate a standard prefix and append msg `as is'. This is intended as a transition mechanism. The standard prefix is generated (if enabled), and msg is appended. The message must be ended with a CoinMessageEol marker. Attempts to add content with << will have no effect.

The default value of detail will not change printing status. If detail is >= 0, it will be used as the detail level to determine whether the message should print (assuming class 0).

CoinMessageHandler& CoinMessageHandler::operator<< ( int  intvalue)

Process an integer parameter value.

The default format code is `d'.

CoinMessageHandler& CoinMessageHandler::operator<< ( double  doublevalue)

Process a double parameter value.

The default format code is `d'.

CoinMessageHandler& CoinMessageHandler::operator<< ( const std::string &  stringvalue)

Process a STL string parameter value.

The default format code is `g'.

CoinMessageHandler& CoinMessageHandler::operator<< ( char  charvalue)

Process a char parameter value.

The default format code is `s'.

CoinMessageHandler& CoinMessageHandler::operator<< ( const char *  stringvalue)

Process a C-style string parameter value.

The default format code is `c'.

CoinMessageHandler& CoinMessageHandler::operator<< ( CoinMessageMarker  )

Process a marker.

The default format code is `s'.

int CoinMessageHandler::finish ( )

Finish (and print) the message.

Equivalent to using the CoinMessageEol marker.

CoinMessageHandler& CoinMessageHandler::printing ( bool  onOff)

Enable or disable printing of an optional portion of a message.

Optional portions of a message are delimited by `%?' markers, and printing processes one %? marker. If onOff is true, the subsequent portion of the message (to the next %? marker or the end of the format string) will be printed. If onOff is false, printing is suppressed. Parameters must still be supplied, whether printing is suppressed or not. See the class documentation for an example.

void CoinMessageHandler::gutsOfCopy ( const CoinMessageHandler rhs)
private

The body of the copy constructor and the assignment operator.

char* CoinMessageHandler::nextPerCent ( char *  start,
const bool  initial = false 
)
private

Internal function to locate next format code.

Intended for internal use. Side effects modify the format string.

int CoinMessageHandler::internalPrint ( )
private

Internal printing function.

Makes it easier to split up print into clean, print and check severity

void CoinMessageHandler::calcPrintStatus ( int  msglvl,
int  msgclass 
)
private

Decide if this message should print.

Friends And Related Function Documentation

bool CoinMessageHandlerUnitTest ( )
friend

A function that tests the methods in the CoinMessageHandler class.

The only reason for it not to be a member method is that this way it doesn't have to be compiled into the library. And that's a gain, because the library should be compiled with optimization on, but this method should be compiled with debugging.
