2004.08.02 gpdf gpdf-20040802a
Introduction of implementation of "severe"==>exit(!=0). Refactoring
of many things in ErrLogger design, requiring changes to all
implementation classes. Main change is moving all customizations
out of the ErrStream class. Wholesale re-evaluation of private/
protected/public classifications of members. Virtually every file
changed.

Introduce a function ErrLog::severityName that allows an error
severity level to be converted to a string. Added additional
Doxygen comments to ErrLog.hh.
[HISTORY ErrLog.{hh,cc}]
2004.07.22 gpdf V01-02-00
Introduce "severe" level so that users can start writing code that
generates messages with that severity. Currently it is set to be
numerically the same as "fatal", however, while the new implementation
is developed.
[HISTORY ErrLog.hh]
2004.01.31 gpdf V01-01-00
Inline the core logging() and checkLogging() methods of ErrLog.
Should help speed up usage of ErrLogging().

2002.06.16 gpdf V01-00-00
Primary overload of "code" argument to ErrLog::msg(), logging()
changed; now is: "int". "const char*" is now supported only for
backward compatibility. This allows the code to be used with
CMLOG as originally intended. Induces a mandatory migration for
the OstErrLogger, FrameLogger, and OstFrameLogger packages.
Also: various tidyings to the new ErrOpt* classes, notably
converting the new #includes to forward references in ErrLog.hh,
to avoid exposing them to users.
[modified almost every file -- use CVS for details]

case when a user forgets to end the message with endmsg

August 19, 1999
The work on Aug 9 has elicited bugs in _other_ peoples code,
namely missing BaBar.hh. Riccardo Faccini has added BaBar.hh
to ErrLogger.hh. This is definitely wrong. However, I have
tagged it as V00-05-03 and will release it or else we will ruin
8.5.2. This will be cleaned later.

Removed CLHEP HepString class dependency. It is suspected
that HepString is not multi-thread safe and is causing some
programs (LogManager) to crash when many messages are spewed
at about the same time.
Also, added an option to not report warnings as in multi-threaded
program it reports erroneous messages. The default behaviour
is to report warnings like before. Multi-threaded programs
should turn it off.

ErrLog now returns an ostream& rather than
an ErrStream&. ErrStream is still used
underneath to trap messages. This change
should alleviate many of the problems that
have been seen: conversion ambiguities and
converting back to streams using ErrStream::Stream
in particular. ErrStream::Stream will be
removed from the interface after release 7.4.X.
The ErrStream interface has been greatly
simplified.

If endl is called, endmsg will be called.
This does not change the output for users

Change termination of error message
to be marked by endmsg rather than
endl. Presently the change is
nearly transparent, which means that
it is transparent unless a user was
incorrectly using the interface
previously by not using endl to
terminate the error message.
Add basic.t.future. This will be
used in the future when endl is no
longer used to terminate messages.
-Scott Metzler

August 7, 1998
Fix ErrLog::msg to refer to the previous
error message when reporting that the
user did not insert ErrStream::Stream.
It had been reporting that the present
message was in error, rather than the
previous. Also, split README into
README and HISTORY and update basic.t
for changes made to the testing. The
new test verifies that the 'previous'
message is flagged for error for not
calling ErrStream::Stream.
-Scott Metzler
May 8, 1998
Add warning message if ErrStream::Stream
is not called after a user defined
operator<<, which forces a conversion
from ErrStream to ostream. Add
link_ErrLogger because this package now
uses HepString's. Update basic.t.
