Hi Wolfgang,
how about making the category a distinct type instead?
struct QMessageCategory {
explicit QMessageCategory(const char *name);
};
class QMessageLogger {
void debug(const char *format, ...);
void debug(QMessageCategory category, const char *format, ...);
}
...
QDebugCategory debugCategory("MyApp"); // You'll typically do this in one place
...
qDebug(debugCategory, "hi there");
Anyhow, you probably don't want to set the category explicitly for every call
in e.g. QtCore, so you can also pass it implicitly via a DEFINE:
class QMessageLogger {
QMessageLogger(const char *file, int line, const char *function, const char
*defaultCategory) {
}
}
#define Q_DEBUG_CATEGORY "" // empty default
#define qDebug QMessageLogger(__FILE__, __LINE__, Q_FUNC_INFO,
Q_DEBUG_CATEGORY).debug
And QtCore is then compiled with DEFINES+="Q_DEBUG_CATEGORY=QtCore". IMO both
approaches are complementary, passing an explicit category would overwrite the
Q_DEBUG_CATEGORY define.
Regards
Kai

Subject: [Development] QLog ( Work on qDebug and friends)
I'm working to integrade category log with QMessageLogger & Co and
unfortunatelly we can not use
qDebg(<category>) << "my message" because there is already a debug(const char
*msg, ...) function
combining with the macro
#define qDebug QMessageLogger(__FILE__, __LINE__, Q_FUNC_INFO).debug.
So I use a new function and macro:
QDebug debug();
QDebug debugCategory(const char *msg);
QDebug warning();
QDebug warningCategory(const char *msg);
QDebug critical();
QDebug criticalCategory(const char *msg);
QDebug fatalCategory(const char *msg);
#define qDebugCat(category) QMessageLogger(__FILE__, __LINE__,
Q_FUNC_INFO).debugCategory(#category)
#define qWarningCat(category) QMessageLogger(__FILE__, __LINE__,
Q_FUNC_INFO).warningCategory(#category)
#define qCriticalCat(category) QMessageLogger(__FILE__, __LINE__,
Q_FUNC_INFO).criticalCategory(#category)
#define qFatalCat(category) QMessageLogger(__FILE__, __LINE__,
Q_FUNC_INFO).fatalCategory(#category)
Any problems with this naming conventions???
Cheers,
WB
