Firebreath NPAPI插件如何记录

Question

How to output log messages with an NPAPI plugin built with FireBreath in C++.
The log should be available during development and test and/or in Debug builds.

---

Modified :

The FireBreath way to log is with Log4cplus , and I have attempted to implement as closely as I can to these instructions.
I appended add_firebreath_library(log4cplus) to the bottom of "PluginConfig.cmake".

I have not yet been able to create a log file that I can read on Windows 8. I have browsed through other resources, such as this: FBLOG_TRACE() No logging to Logfile -- FBLOG_INFO() logging OK -- What is the DIFFERENCE

So far, all of my logging attempts are as follows:

#include "logging.h"
...
FBLOG_INFO("my function name", "and some text");

Optional Debug Level :

I am not sure if I have to override getLogLevel() because I am happy with the default level of INFO , and I am not sure exactly where to put it if I do override it:

FB::Log::LogLevel getLogLevel(){
    return FB::Log::LogLevel_Trace; // Now Trace and above is logged.
}

Log File Path :

I am also uncertain about the proper path to writing the log file in windows. I have tried:

- outMethods.push_back(std::make_pair(FB::Log::LogMethod_File, "C:/logs/XXXX/yyyy.log"));
- outMethods.push_back(std::make_pair(FB::Log::LogMethod_File, "C:\logs\XXXX\yyyy.log"));
- outMethods.push_back(std::make_pair(FB::Log::LogMethod_File, "/logs/XXXX/yyyy.log"));
etc.

Prep Script Errors :

After enabling Log4cplus in "PluginConfig.cmake" with add_firebreath_library(log4cplus) , I get some "not found" errors in my prep script on Windows, but the script otherwise appears to complete successfully, and my plugin builds without error, so I have chosen to so far ignore these errors. But, here they are:

Note: Partial path replacement with 'XXXXX'.

My Environment :

I am currently building my plugin on Mac and Windows (Mountain Lion and Windows 8).

I am testing in the following browsers:

1. Mac: Safari & Chrome.
2. Windows: IE 10 and Chrome.

FWIW: My Win installation for development is in a Mac VMWare Fusion v5.0 Guest.

Summary :

Please help me get Log4cplus working in my plugin with an accessible log file.

Answer 1

It looks like you're on the right track, but you're missing a very important piece -- you can't write to C:\\logs, since only an admin has permissions to do that.

As to the "not found" "errors", those aren't errors... just status messages. That's part of building log4cplus, it's looking to see what your platform supports. You can safely ignore those.

If you look on the Tips and Tricks page you'll find some useful examples .

The main one I'm referring to comes from a gist I created some time back ; you'll need to add_boost_library(filesystem) but you can then use this code to find a valid location to put your logs in. The code currently detects if the log path (which will be in %AppData%\\LocalLow\\CompanyName\\logs with this code) exists and only writes the log if it does. It also uses a timestamp and a process id to ensure uniqueness to plugin instance.

#include <boost/filesystem.hpp>
#include "SystemHelpers.h"
using namespace boost::filesystem;

/// ...


void getLoggingMethods( FB::Log::LogMethodList& outMethods )
{
    path appDataPath = FB::System::getLocalAppDataPath("CompanyName");

    path logDirPath = appDataPath / "logs";
    if (exists(logDirPath) && is_directory(logDirPath)) {
        std::stringstream ss;
        time_t seconds = time(NULL);
        boost::thread::id threadId = boost::this_thread::get_id();
        ss << seconds << "_" << threadId << ".log";

        path logPath = logDirPath / ss.str();

        fprintf(stderr, "logging to %s", logPath.string().c_str());
        outMethods.push_back(std::make_pair(FB::Log::LogMethod_File, logPath.string()));
    }
#ifndef NDEBUG
    outMethods.push_back(std::make_pair(FB::Log::LogMethod_Console, std::string()));
#endif
}
