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:
  • Define your messages. For each message, you must supply an external ID number, a log (detail) level, and a format string. Typically, you define a convenience structure for this, something that's easy to use to create an array of initialised message definitions at compile time.
  • Create a CoinMessages object, sized to accommodate the number of messages you've defined. (Incremental growth will happen if necessary as messages are loaded, but it's inefficient.)
  • Load the messages into the CoinMessages object. Typically this entails creating a CoinOneMessage object for each message and passing it as a parameter to CoinMessages::addMessage(). You specify the message's internal ID as the other parameter to addMessage.
  • Create and use a CoinMessageHandler object to print messages.
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: \li <3000 are informational ('I') \li <6000 warnings ('W') \li <9000 non-fatal errors ('E') \li >=9000 aborts the program (after printing the message) ('S')

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 \verbatim "A message with%? an optional integer %d and%? a double %g." \endverbatim installed in CoinMessages \c exampleMsgs with index 5, and \c CoinMessageHandler \c hdl, the code \code hdl.message(5,exampleMsgs) ; hdl.printing(true) << 42 ; hdl.printing(true) << 53.5 << CoinMessageEol ; \endcode will print \verbatim A message with an optional integer 42 and a double 53.5. \endverbatim while \code hdl.message(5,exampleMsgs) ; hdl.printing(false) << 42 ; hdl.printing(true) << 53.5 << CoinMessageEol ; \endcode will print \verbatim A message with a double 53.5. \endverbatim For additional examples of usage, see CoinMessageHandlerUnitTest in CoinMessageHandlerTest.cpp. */ /* Where there are derived classes I (jjf) have started message numbers at 1001. */ class CoinMessageHandler { friend bool CoinMessageHandlerUnitTest () ; private: /** The body of the copy constructor and the assignment operator */ void gutsOfCopy(const CoinMessageHandler& rhs); public: /**@name Virtual methods that the derived classes may provide */ //@{ /** Print message, return 0 normally. */ virtual int print() ; /** Check message severity - if too bad then abort */ virtual void checkSeverity() ; //@} /**@name Constructors etc */ //@{ /// Constructor CoinMessageHandler(); /// Constructor to put to file pointer (won't be closed) CoinMessageHandler(FILE *fp); /** Destructor */ virtual ~CoinMessageHandler(); /** The copy constructor */ CoinMessageHandler(const CoinMessageHandler&); /** Assignment operator. */ CoinMessageHandler& operator=(const CoinMessageHandler&); /// Clone virtual CoinMessageHandler * clone() const; //@} /**@name Get and set methods */ //@{ /// Get detail level of a message. inline int detail(int messageNumber, const CoinMessages &normalMessage) const { return normalMessage.message_[messageNumber]->detail();} /** Get current log (detail) level. */ inline int logLevel() const { return logLevel_;} /** \brief Set current log (detail) level.
