//

// Key Abstractions
// ----------------
//
// This file declares multiple classes and protocols that are used by the
// GTMLogger logging system. The 4 main abstractions used in this file are the
// following:
//
//   * logger (GTMLogger) - The main logging class that users interact with. It
//   has methods for logging at different levels and uses a log writer, a log
//   formatter, and a log filter to get the job done.
//
//   * log writer (GTMLogWriter) - Writes a given string to some log file, where
//   a "log file" can be a physical file on disk, a POST over HTTP to some URL,
//   or even some in-memory structure (e.g., a ring buffer).
//
//   * log formatter (GTMLogFormatter) - Given a format string and arguments as
//   a va_list, returns a single formatted NSString. A "formatted string" could
//   be a string with the date prepended, a string with values in a CSV format,
//   or even a string of XML.
//
//   * log filter (GTMLogFilter) - Given a formatted log message as an NSString
//   and the level at which the message is to be logged, this class will decide
//   whether the given message should be logged or not. This is a flexible way
//   to filter out messages logged at a certain level, messages that contain
//   certain text, or filter nothing out at all. This gives the caller the
//   flexibility to dynamically enable debug logging in Release builds.
//
// This file also declares some classes to handle the common log writer, log
// formatter, and log filter cases. Callers can also create their own writers,
// formatters, and filters and they can even build them on top of the ones
// declared here. Keep in mind that your custom writer/formatter/filter may be
// called from multiple threads, so it must be thread-safe.

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import "GTMDefines.h"

// Predeclaration of used protocols that are declared later in this file.
@protocol GTMLogWriter, GTMLogFormatter, GTMLogFilter;

// GTMLogger
//
// GTMLogger is the primary user-facing class for an object-oriented logging
// system. It is built on the concept of log formatters (GTMLogFormatter), log
// writers (GTMLogWriter), and log filters (GTMLogFilter). When a message is
// sent to a GTMLogger to log a message, the message is formatted using the log
// formatter, then the log filter is consulted to see if the message should be
// logged, and if so, the message is sent to the log writer to be written out.
//
// GTMLogger is intended to be a flexible and thread-safe logging solution. Its
// flexibility comes from the fact that GTMLogger instances can be customized
// with user defined formatters, filters, and writers. And these writers,
// filters, and formatters can be combined, stacked, and customized in arbitrary
// ways to suit the needs at hand. For example, multiple writers can be used at
// the same time, and a GTMLogger instance can even be used as another
// GTMLogger's writer. This allows for arbitrarily deep logging trees.
//
// A standard GTMLogger uses a writer that sends messages to standard out, a
// formatter that smacks a timestamp and a few other bits of interesting
// information on the message, and a filter that filters out debug messages from
// release builds. Using the standard log settings, a log message will look like
// the following:
//
//   2007-12-30 10:29:24.177 myapp[4588/0xa07d0f60] [lvl=1] foo=<Foo: 0x123>
//
// The output contains the date and time of the log message, the name of the
// process followed by its process ID/thread ID, the log level at which the
// message was logged (in the previous example the level was 1:
// kGTMLoggerLevelDebug), and finally, the user-specified log message itself (in
// this case, the log message was @"foo=%@", foo).
//
// Multiple instances of GTMLogger can be created, each configured their own
// way.  Though GTMLogger is not a singleton (in the GoF sense), it does provide
// access to a shared (i.e., globally accessible) GTMLogger instance. This makes
// it convenient for all code in a process to use the same GTMLogger instance.
// The shared GTMLogger instance can also be configured in an arbitrary, and
// these configuration changes will affect all code that logs through the shared
// instance.

//
// Log Levels
// ----------
// GTMLogger has 3 different log levels: Debug, Info, and Error. GTMLogger
// doesn't take any special action based on the log level; it simply forwards
// this information on to formatters, filters, and writers, each of which may
// optionally take action based on the level. Since log level filtering is
// performed at runtime, log messages are typically not filtered out at compile
// time.  The exception to this rule is that calls to the GTMLoggerDebug() macro
// *ARE* filtered out of non-DEBUG builds. This is to be backwards compatible
// with behavior that many developers are currently used to. Note that this
// means that GTMLoggerDebug(@"hi") will be compiled out of Release builds, but
// [[GTMLogger sharedLogger] logDebug:@"hi"] will NOT be compiled out.
//
// Standard loggers are created with the GTMLogLevelFilter log filter, which
// filters out certain log messages based on log level, and some other settings.
//
// In addition to the -logDebug:, -logInfo:, and -logError: methods defined on
// GTMLogger itself, there are also C macros that make usage of the shared
// GTMLogger instance very convenient. These macros are:
//
//   GTMLoggerDebug(...)
//   GTMLoggerInfo(...)
//   GTMLoggerError(...)
//
// Again, a notable feature of these macros is that GTMLogDebug() calls *will be
// compiled out of non-DEBUG builds*.
//
// Standard Loggers
// ----------------
// GTMLogger has the concept of "standard loggers". A standard logger is simply
// a logger that is pre-configured with some standard/common writer, formatter,
// and filter combination. Standard loggers are created using the creation
// methods beginning with "standard". The alternative to a standard logger is a
// regular logger, which will send messages to stdout, with no special
// formatting, and no filtering.
//
// How do I use GTMLogger?
// ----------------------
// The typical way you will want to use GTMLogger is to simply use the
// GTMLogger*() macros for logging from code. That way we can easily make
// changes to the GTMLogger class and simply update the macros accordingly. Only
// your application startup code (perhaps, somewhere in main()) should use the
// GTMLogger class directly in order to configure the shared logger, which all
// of the code using the macros will be using. Again, this is just the typical
// situation.
//
// To be complete, there are cases where you may want to use GTMLogger directly,
// or even create separate GTMLogger instances for some reason. That's fine,
// too.
//
// Examples
// --------
// The following show some common GTMLogger use cases.
//
// 1. You want to log something as simply as possible. Also, this call will only
//    appear in debug builds. In non-DEBUG builds it will be completely removed.
//
//      GTMLoggerDebug(@"foo = %@", foo);
//
// 2. The previous example is similar to the following. The major difference is
//    that the previous call (example 1) will be compiled out of Release builds
//    but this statement will not be compiled out.
//
//      [[GTMLogger sharedLogger] logDebug:@"foo = %@", foo];
//
// 3. Send all logging output from the shared logger to a file. We do this by
//    creating an NSFileHandle for writing associated with a file, and setting
//    that file handle as the logger's writer.
//
//      NSFileHandle *f = [NSFileHandle fileHandleForWritingAtPath:@"/tmp/f.log"
//                                                          create:YES];
//      [[GTMLogger sharedLogger] setWriter:f];
//      GTMLoggerError(@"hi");  // This will be sent to /tmp/f.log
//
// 4. Create a new GTMLogger that will log to a file. This example differs from
//    the previous one because here we create a new GTMLogger that is different
//    from the shared logger.
//
//      GTMLogger *logger = [GTMLogger standardLoggerWithPath:@"/tmp/temp.log"];
//      [logger logInfo:@"hi temp log file"];
//
// 5. Create a logger that writes to stdout and does NOT do any formatting to
//    the log message. This might be useful, for example, when writing a help
//    screen for a command-line tool to standard output.
//
//      GTMLogger *logger = [GTMLogger logger];
//      [logger logInfo:@"%@ version 0.1 usage", progName];
//
// 6. Send log output to stdout AND to a log file. The trick here is that
//    NSArrays function as composite log writers, which means when an array is
//    set as the log writer, it forwards all logging messages to all of its
//    contained GTMLogWriters.
//
//      // Create array of GTMLogWriters
//      NSArray *writers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
//          [NSFileHandle fileHandleForWritingAtPath:@"/tmp/f.log" create:YES],
//          [NSFileHandle fileHandleWithStandardOutput], nil];
//
//      GTMLogger *logger = [GTMLogger standardLogger];
//      [logger setWriter:writers];
//      [logger logInfo:@"hi"];  // Output goes to stdout and /tmp/f.log
//
// For futher details on log writers, formatters, and filters, see the
// documentation below.
//
// NOTE: GTMLogger is application level logging.  By default it does nothing
// with _GTMDevLog/_GTMDevAssert (see GTMDefines.h).  An application can choose
// to bridge _GTMDevLog/_GTMDevAssert to GTMLogger by providing macro
// definitions in its prefix header (see GTMDefines.h for how one would do
// that).
