/**
* LOGGING SERVICE
*
* We all know and love PR_LOG, but let's face it, it has some deficiencies:
* - can't direct output for different logs to different places,
* - isn't scriptable,
* - can't control printing format, including indentation,
* - no facilities for interval timing.
* We've solved these problems with NS_LOG, the new modern equivalent. Here's
* how you use it:
*
* // First declare a new log:
* NS_DECL_LOG(Foo);
*
* void main() {
* nsresult rv;
*
* // Initialize the log somewhere in your startup code:
* NS_INIT_LOG(Foo, &rv);
*
* // Then use it like this:
* NS_LOG(Foo, OUT, ("hello world"));
* }
*
* The above log statement will print something like this:
*
* a33e50 Foo hello world
*
* The hex number at the beginning of the line indicates the ID of the thread
* executing the NS_LOG statement. The name of the log appears next. And if
* the constant ERROR, WARN, or DBG had appeared instead of OUT in the NS_LOG
* statement, the character 'E', 'W' or 'D' would have appeared before the
* message to indicate the type of log statement. The level displayed can
* be controlled by calling SetLevel on the log.
*
* // You can also cause it to indent its output to help you log recursive execution:
* int fact(int n) {
* NS_LOG_WITH_INDENT(Foo, "fact");
* NS_LOG(Main, ERROR, ("calling fact of %d\n", n));
* if (n == 0) return 1;
* int result = n * fact(n - 1);
* NS_LOG(Foo, DBG, ("fact of %d is %d\n", n, result));
* return result;
* }
*
* Calling fact(3) will produce a log that looks like this:
*
* a33e50 Foo D | calling fact of 3
* a33e50 Foo D | | calling fact of 2
* a33e50 Foo D | | | calling fact of 1
* a33e50 Foo D | | | | calling fact of 0
* a33e50 Foo D | | | fact of 1 is 1
* a33e50 Foo D | | fact of 2 is 2
* a33e50 Foo D | fact of 3 is 6
*
* You can compute elapsed time for a series of runs, and then ask the log for
* statistical information on them:
*
* void TestTiming() {
* for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
* NS_LOG_BEGIN_TIMING(Foo);
* CallTestToTime();
* PRIntervalTime elapsed;
* NS_LOG_END_TIMING(Foo, &elapsed);
* NS_LOG(Foo, OUT, ("time for this run: %f\n", elapsed));
* }
* #ifdef NS_ENABLE_LOGGING
* PRUint32 samples;
* double mean, stdDev;
* Foo->GetTimingStats(&samples, &mean, &stdDev);
* printf("samples: %d, mean: %f, standard deviation: %f\n",
* samples, mean, stdDev);
* #endif
* }
*
* You can control where the output of the log goes by setting its
* log event sink to an appropriate nsILogEventSink. By default the
* standard log event sink does the following:
* - outputs to stderr
* - outputs to the platform's debug output for errors
* New log event sinks can be instantiated via the component manager:
*
* nsComponentManager::CreateInstance(kStandardLogEventSinkCID,
* nsnull, NS_GET_IID(nsIStandardLogEventSink),
* &logEventSink);
* logEventSink->Init(stdout, // stdout instead of stderr
* nsILog::LEVEL_WARN); // level to log to debug output
* Foo->SetLogEventSink(logEventSink);
*
* or the application can implement its own nsILogEventSink.
