TraceFns Class

A collection of static methods used to provide code assertions, tracing and logging functionality for release builds of DevForce applications.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Class TraceFns

'Usage
 
Dim instance As TraceFns

public class TraceFns

Remarks

Both TraceFns and DebugFns provide identical behavior except that calls to methods in this class are intended to always execute. In Visual Studio .NET projects, the conditional TRACE flag is enabled by default for both release and debug builds.

Messages are written to the ITraceLogger implementation found; if a custom ILogger is not provided then output is to the IdeaBlade.Core.IdeaBladeConfig.LoggingInfo.LogFile specified in the IdeaBlade configuration, and can also be viewed using the Trace Viewer utility.

Tracing "Filters" can be set using the IdeaBlade.Core.IdeaBladeConfig.LoggingInfo.RejectFilters and IdeaBlade.Core.IdeaBladeConfig.LoggingInfo.AcceptFilters nodes in the IdeaBlade configuration file to enable and disable logging from specific namespaces.
