Member Function Documentation

static ostream* BESDebug::GetStrm (  )  [inline, static]

return the debug stream

Can be a file output stream or cerr

Returns:
the current debug stream

void BESDebug::Help ( ostream &  strm  )  [static]

Writes help information for so that developers know what can be set for debugging.

Displays information about possible debugging context, such as nc, hdf4, bes

Parameters:
strm output stream to write the help information to

static bool BESDebug::IsSet ( const string &  flagName  )  [inline, static]

see if the debug context flagName is set to true

Parameters:
flagName debug context to check if set
Returns:
whether the specified flagName is set or not

static void BESDebug::Register ( const string &  flagName  )  [inline, static]

register the specified debug flag

Allows developers to register a debug flag for when Help method is called.

Parameters:
flagName debug context to register

static void BESDebug::Set ( const string &  flagName,
bool  value 
) [inline, static]

set the debug context to the specified value

Static function that sets the specified debug context (flagName) to the specified debug value (true or false). If the context is found then the value is set. Else the context is created and the value set.

Parameters:
flagName debug context flag to set to the given value
value set the debug context to this value

static void BESDebug::SetStrm ( ostream *  strm,
bool  created 
) [inline, static]

set the debug output stream to the specified stream

Static method that sets the debug output stream to the specified ostream.

If the ostream was created (not set to cerr), then the created flag should be set to true.

If the current debug stream is set and the _debug_strm_created flag is set to true then delete the current debug stream.

set the static _debug_strm_created flag to the passed created flag

Parameters:
strm set the current debug stream to strm
created wether the passed debug stream was created

void BESDebug::SetUp ( const string &  values  )  [static]

Sets up debugging for the bes.

This static method sets up debugging for the bes given a set of values typically passed on the command line. Might look like the following:

-d "bes.debug,nc,hdf4,bes"

this method will break this down to set the output stream to an ofstream for the file bes.debug and turn on debugging for nc, hdf4, and bes.

Parameters:
values to be parsed and set for debugging, bes.debug,nc,hdf4,bes
