Detailed Description

Acts as an application-wide logging class.

A subclass of Logger can be created and passed into the Logger::setCurrentLogger method and this will then be used by all calls to writeToLog.

The logger class also contains methods for writing messages to the debugger's output stream.

Member Function Documentation

setCurrentLogger()

static void JUCE_CALLTYPE Logger::setCurrentLogger ( Logger *  newLogger )

staticnoexcept

Sets the current logging class to use.

Note that the object passed in will not be owned or deleted by the logger, so the caller must make sure that it is not deleted while still being used. A null pointer can be passed-in to reset the system to the default logger.

getCurrentLogger()

static Logger* JUCE_CALLTYPE Logger::getCurrentLogger ( )

staticnoexcept

Returns the current logger, or nullptr if no custom logger has been set.

writeToLog()

static void JUCE_CALLTYPE Logger::writeToLog ( const String &  message )

static

Writes a string to the current logger.

This will pass the string to the logger's logMessage() method if a logger has been set.

logMessage

outputDebugString()

static void JUCE_CALLTYPE Logger::outputDebugString ( const String &  text )

static

Writes a message to the standard error stream.

This can be called directly, or by using the DBG() macro in juce_PlatformDefs.h (which will avoid calling the method in non-debug builds).

logMessage()

virtual void Logger::logMessage ( const String &  message )

protectedpure virtual

This is overloaded by subclasses to implement custom logging behaviour.
