Log system ?? [message #43865]

Hi,
is there any log sytem in IDL ?

I'm programming a little procedure to write information to terminal (or
to a file) with information/error/debug messages, for example:

IDL> logmsg, 'INFO', 'Example message'

that prints:

Thu May 5 10:42:47 2005 - (INFO) - [$MAIN$]: Example message

Exists any good tool for this in IDL.

I'm reading the MESSAGE procedure but it can't write to files, no?

Thanks,

Antonio.

I've written a number of IDL routines for logging, based very loosely
on Java's logging. I'd appreciate the beta testing and feedback. If
you're interested, send an email and I'll zip it up for you.

I found this old post while searching for a way to log error messages.

I use the MESSAGE procedure quite a lot. In some long procedures, I often use it as:

message, 'Txt', /continue

when I want to report an error of some kind but continue with other operations. I'd like to be able to log these messages to a file, as they are printed in the terminal when they are encountered. It would be nice to have something like a /FILE keyword to MESSAGE, but I suspect there's a reason for its inexistence. Any tips?

Thanks,
Seb

There are others. Mike Galloy has one, too.

Cheers,

Here is an article about using my logging system:

http://michaelgalloy.com/2011/11/17/logging.html

Yes, MG_LOG is here:

https://github.com/mgalloy/mglib/blob/master/src/dist_tools/ mg_log.pro

But you need multiple other routines/classes from my library, so I would
just grab the whole thing.
