Class Log

java.lang.Object
  hades.models.mips.tools.Log

public class Log

extends java.lang.Object

Log to two different channels: log() and err(). Leaf methods can only use these methods, others have to call begin() and end() at this positions for correct spaces in front of the lines

Field Summary

static long	cycleCounter
static char[]	error
static boolean	file
static int	indent
static char[]	leer

Constructor Summary

Log()

Method Summary

static void	begin(java.lang.String msg) If a method calls other methods with log output it should call begin() at the beginning and end() at the end.
static void	end()
static void	end(java.lang.String msg) If begin() has been used end() must be used, too, to indicate the end of a logical block (normally a method).
static void	err(java.lang.String msg) Standard error output, output is done to StdErr and, if turned on, to the logfile.
static long	getCycleCounter()
static boolean	getFile()
static boolean	getStdOut()
static void	log(java.lang.String msg) Standard log output.
static void	setCycleCounter(long newCycleCounter)
static void	setFile(boolean newFile)
static void	setStdOut(boolean newStdOut)

Method Detail

log

public static void log(java.lang.String msg)

Standard log output. The message should only contain the calling methods name if there is no Log.begin in this method. The output will be written to a file and to StdOut if setFile() and setStdOut() allow this. Only leaf methods should use log() without begin() and end().

err

public static void err(java.lang.String msg)

Standard error output, output is done to StdErr and, if turned on, to the logfile.

begin

public static void begin(java.lang.String msg)

If a method calls other methods with log output it should call begin() at the beginning and end() at the end. begin() without end() leads to big problems! begin() and end() are needed for a better structure of the log output. begin() always needs the name of the class and the method. Sometimes an additional instance name is needed.

end

public static void end(java.lang.String msg)

If begin() has been used end() must be used, too, to indicate the end of a logical block (normally a method). end() can be called with or without a message.

end

public static void end()

setStdOut

public static void setStdOut(boolean newStdOut)

getStdOut

public static boolean getStdOut()

setFile

public static void setFile(boolean newFile)

getFile

public static boolean getFile()

setCycleCounter

public static void setCycleCounter(long newCycleCounter)

getCycleCounter

public static long getCycleCounter()
