Description
Version: 0.1.
LogEx is a logging plugin. It allows to append a string to a logfile and show this string in the status listbox and/or the status bar (like DetailPrint)
How To Use
The most practical way to use this plugin is disabling the PluginUnload. To do this call "SetPluginUnload alwaysoff" in all functions and sections where you use this plugin. ...
Init DLL Function
LogEx::Init /NOUNLOAD FileName
- FileName
- Log file name. The file will be opened with FILE_APPEND_DATA, so evt. old data will be left untouched.
Write DLL Function
LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD LogString [bWriteToStatusList] [bWriteToStatusBar]
- LogString
- String to write to the logfile.
- bWriteToStatusList
- If equal to true, adds the string to the Status Listbox.
- bWriteToStatusBar
- If equal to true, adds the string to the Status Bar.
AddFile DLL Function
LogEx::AddFile /NOUNLOAD FileName Prefix
- FileName
- File to add to the logfile.
- Prefix
- Prefix to add at the beginning of each new line.
Close DLL Function
LogEx::Close
Example
LogEx::Init /NOUNLOAD "$TEMP\log.txt" LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD "Write this line to the log file only" LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD "Write this line to the log file and the status list box" true LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD "Write this line to the log file, the status list box and the statusbar" true true LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD 'Write complete "dir" output to the log file with ">" as prefix' ExecDos::exec 'cmd /C dir' "" "$TEMP\output.log" LogEx::AddFile "$TEMP\output.log" ">" LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD 'Write "dir" output from line3 to the log file' ExecDos::exec 'cmd /C dir' "" "$TEMP\output.log" LogEx::AddFile "$TEMP\output.log" "" 3 LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD 'Write "dir" output from line3 to line8 to the log file' ExecDos::exec 'cmd /C dir' "" "$TEMP\output.log" LogEx::AddFile "$TEMP\output.log" "" 3 6 LogEx::Close ; Done
Notes
The LogEx::AddFile function is especially usefull in combination with execution of a console application (like ExecDos plug-in)
