type category

category for debugging/verbose messages. Must be registered before any use. Each column in the string defines a sub-category, e.g. a:b:c defines a subcategory c of b, which is itself a subcategory of a. Enabling a category (via -plugin-msg-category) will enable all its subcategories.

Outputs the formatted message on stdout. Levels and key-categories are taken into account like event messages. The header formatted message is emitted as a regular result message.

val debug : ?level:int -> ?dkey:category -> 'a Frama_c_kernel.Log.pretty_printer

val verify : bool -> ('a, bool) Frama_c_kernel.Log.pretty_aborter

  • since Beryllium-20090901
  • before 23.0-Vanadium

    there was no current and source arguments.

val deprecated : string -> now:string -> ('a -> 'b) -> 'a -> 'b

deprecated s ~now f indicates that the use of f of name s is now deprecated. It should be replaced by now.

val log : ?kind:Frama_c_kernel.Log.kind -> ?verbose:int -> ?debug:int -> 'a Frama_c_kernel.Log.pretty_printer

Generic log routine. The default kind is Result. Use cases (with n,m > 0):

  • log ~verbose:n: emit the message only when verbosity level is at least n.
  • log ~debug:n: emit the message only when debugging level is at least n.
  • log ~verbose:n ~debug:m: any debugging or verbosity level is sufficient.

val logwith : (Frama_c_kernel.Log.event option -> 'b) -> ?wkey:warn_category -> ?emitwith:(Frama_c_kernel.Log.event -> unit) -> ?once:bool -> ('a, 'b) Frama_c_kernel.Log.pretty_aborter

Recommanded generic log routine using warn_category instead of kind. logwith continuation ?wkey fmt similar to warning ?wkey fmt and then calling the continuation. The optional continuation argument refers to the corresponding event. None is used iff no message is logged. In case the wkey is considered as a Failure, the continution is not called. This kind of message denotes a fatal error aborting Frama-C. Notice that the ~emitwith action is called iff a message is logged.
