Detailed Description

The log manager handles the creation and retrieval of logs for the application.

Remarks:
This class will create new log files and will retrieve instances of existing ones. Other classes wishing to log output can either create a fresh log or retrieve an existing one to output to. One log is the default log, and is the one written to when the logging methods of this class are called.

Member Function Documentation

void Ogre::LogManager::_routeMessage const String name,
const String message,
LogMessageLevel  lml = LML_NORMAL,
bool  maskDebug = false
[protected]
 

Internal helper method to reroute logging messages to the new listener system, while maintaining full backward compatiblity.

void Ogre::LogManager::addListener LogListener listener  ) 
 

Adds a new listener for the logging system.

Ogre does not assume ownership and does not destroy the listener at application shutdown.

Log* Ogre::LogManager::createLog const String name,
bool  defaultLog = false,
bool  debuggerOutput = true
 

Creates a new log with the given name.

Parameters:
name The name to give the log e.g. 'Ogre.log'
defaultLog If true, this is the default log output will be sent to if the generic logging methods on this class are used. The first log created is always the default log unless this parameter is set.
debuggerOutput If true, output to this log will also be routed to the debugger's output window.

Log* Ogre::LogManager::getDefaultLog  ) 
 

Returns a pointer to the default log.

Log* Ogre::LogManager::getLog const String name  ) 
 

Retrieves a log managed by this class.

LogManager& Ogre::LogManager::getSingleton void   )  [static]
 

Override standard Singleton retrieval.

Remarks:
Why do we do this? Well, it's because the Singleton implementation is in a .h file, which means it gets compiled into anybody who includes it. This is needed for the Singleton template to work, but we actually only want it compiled into the implementation of the class based on the Singleton, not all of them. If we don't change this, we get link errors when trying to use the Singleton-based class from an outside dll.
This method just delegates to the template version anyway, but the implementation stays in this single compilation unit, preventing link errors.

Reimplemented from Ogre::Singleton< LogManager >.

LogManager* Ogre::LogManager::getSingletonPtr void   )  [static]

void Ogre::LogManager::logMessage LogMessageLevel  lml,
const String message,
bool  maskDebug = false
 

Log a message to the default log (signature for backward compatibility).

Definition at line 138 of file OgreLogManager.h.

References Ogre::String.

void Ogre::LogManager::logMessage const String message,
LogMessageLevel  lml = LML_NORMAL,
bool  maskDebug = false
 

Log a message to the default log.

void Ogre::LogManager::removeListener LogListener listener  ) 
 

Removes a previously registered listener again, and returns ownership of the listener to the caller, who is responsible for destroying the listener again.

Log* Ogre::LogManager::setDefaultLog Log newLog  ) 
 

Sets the passed in log as the default log.

Returns:
The previous default log.

void Ogre::LogManager::setLogDetail LoggingLevel  ll  ) 
 

Sets the level of detail of the default log.
