File msg_stack.hxx

Defines

MSG_MAX_SIZE

The maximum length (in chars) of messages, not including terminating ‘0’.

__thefunc__

The PRETTY_FUNCTION variable is defined by GCC (and some other families) but is not a part of the standard. The func variable is a part of the c++11 standard so we’d like to fall back to this if possible. However as these are variables/constants and not macros we can’t just check if PRETTY_FUNCITON is defined or not. Instead we need to say if we support this or not by defining HAS_PRETTY_FUNCTION (to be implemented in configure)

GLOBAL

This is a way to define a global object, so that it is declared extern in all files except one where GLOBALORIGIN is defined.

CONCATENATE_DIRECT(s1, s2)

To concatenate strings for a variable name.

CONCATENATE(s1, s2)

Need to use two levels due to macro strangeness.

TRACE(...)

The TRACE macro provides a convenient way to put messages onto the msg_stack It pushes a message onto the stack, and pops it when the scope ends

Example

{ TRACE(“Starting calculation”)

} // Scope ends, message popped

AUTO_TRACE()

The AUTO_TRACE macro provides a convenient way to put messages onto the msg_stack It pushes a message onto the stack, and pops it when the scope ends The message is automatically derived from the function signature as identified by the compiler. This will be PRETTY_FUNCTION if available else it will be the mangled form.

This is implemented as a use of the TRACE macro with specific arguments.

Example

{ AUTO_TRACE();

} // Scope ends, message popped

Variables

MsgStack msg_stack

Global object. Will eventually replace with better system.

class MsgStack

#include <msg_stack.hxx>

Message stack

Implements a stack of messages which can be pushed onto the top and popped off the top. This is used for debugging: messages are put into this stack at the start of a section of code, and removed at the end. If an error occurs in between push and pop, then the message can be printed.

This code is only enabled if CHECK > 1. If CHECK is disabled then this message stack code reverts to empty functions which should be removed by the optimiser

Public Functions

MsgStack()

~MsgStack()

int push(const char *s, ...)

Add a message to the stack. Returns a message id.

Provides a message stack to print more useful error messages.
