Automake::Channels - support functions for error and warning management
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Automake::Channels;
# Register a channel to output warnings about unused variables.
register_channel 'unused', type => 'warning';
# Register a channel for system errors.
register_channel 'system', type => 'error', exit_code => 4;
# Output a message on channel 'unused'.
msg 'unused', "$file:$line", "unused variable `$var'";
# Make the 'unused' channel silent.
setup_channel 'unused', silent => 1;
# Turn on all channels of type 'warning'.
setup_channel_type 'warning', silent => 0;
# Treat all warnings as errors.
$warnings_are_errors = 1;
# Exit with the greater exist code encountered so far.
exit $exit_code;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This perl module provides support functions for handling diagnostic
channels in programs. Channels can be registered to convey fatal,
error, warning, or debug messages. Each channel has various options
(e.g. is the channel silent, should duplicate messages be removed,
etc.) that can also be overridden on a per-message basis.

=head2 Global Variables
=over 4
=item C<$exit_code>
The greatest exit code seen so far. C<$exit_code> is updated from
the C<exit_code> options of C<fatal> and C<error> channels.
=cut
use vars qw ($exit_code);

Set this variable to 1 if warning messages should be treated as
errors (i.e. if they should update C<$exit_code>).

=head2 Constants
=over 4
=item C<UP_NONE>, C<UP_TEXT>, C<UP_LOC_TEXT>
Possible values for the C<uniq_part> options. This select the part
of the message that should be considered when filtering out duplicates.
If C<UP_LOC_TEXT> is used, the location and the explanation message
are used for filtering. If C<UP_TEXT> is used, only the explanation
message is used (so the same message will be filtered out if it appears
at different locations). C<UP_NONE> means that duplicate messages
should be output.
=cut
use constant UP_NONE => 0;
use constant UP_TEXT => 1;
use constant UP_LOC_TEXT => 2;
=item C<US_LOCAL>, C<US_GLOBAL>
Possible values for the C<uniq_scope> options.
Use C<US_GLOBAL> for error messages that should be printed only
once in the run of the program, C<US_LOCAL> for message that
should be printed only once per file. (Actually, C<Channels> does not
now when files are changed, it relies on you calling C<reset_local_duplicates>
when this happens.)

=head2 Options
Channels accept the options described below. These options can be
passed as a hash to the C<register_channel>, C<setup_channel>, and C<msg>
functions. The possible keys, with there default value are:
=over
=item C<type =E<gt> 'warning'>
The type of the channel. One of C<'debug'>, C<'warning'>, C<'error'>, or
C<'fatal'>. Fatal messages abort the program when they are output.
Error messages update the exit status. Debug and warning messages are
harmless, except that warnings can be treated as errors of
C<$warnings_are_errors> is set.
=item C<exit_code =E<gt> 1>
The value to update C<$exit_code> with when a fatal or error message
is emitted. C<$exit_code> is also updated for warnings output
when @<$warnings_are_errors> is set.
=item C<file =E<gt> \*STDERR>
The file where the error should be output.
=item C<silent =E<gt> 0>
Whether the channel should be silent. Use this do disable a
category of warning, for instance.
=item C<uniq_part =E<gt> UP_LOC_TEXT>
The part of the message subject to duplicate filtering. See the
documentation for the C<UP_NONE>, C<UP_TEXT>, and C<UP_LOC_TEXT>
constants above.
=item C<uniq_scope =E<gt> US_LOCAL>
The scope of duplicate filtering. See the documentation for the
C<US_LOCAL>, and C<US_GLOBAL> constants above.
=item C<header =E<gt> ''>
A string to prepend to each message emitted through this channel.
=item C<footer =E<gt> ''>
A string to append to each message emitted through this channel.
=item C<backtrace =E<gt> 0>
Die with a stack backtrace after displaying the message.

my $file = $opts{'file'};

return 1;
}
=item C<msg ($channel, $location, $message, [%options])>
Emit a message on C<$channel>, overriding some options of the channel with
those specified in C<%options>. Obviously C<$channel> must have been
registered with C<register_channel>.
C<$message> is the text of the message, and C<$location> is a location
associated to the message.
For instance to complain about some unused variable C<mumble>
declared at line 10 in F<foo.c>, one could do:
msg 'unused', 'foo.c:10', "unused variable `mumble'";
If channel C<unused> is not silent (and if this message is not a duplicate),
the following would be output:
foo.c:10: unused variable `mumble'
If C<$message> contains newline characters, C<$location> is prepended
to each line. For instance
msg 'error', 'somewhere', "1st line\n2nd line";
becomes
somewhere: 1st line
somewhere: 2nd line
If C<$location> is an empty string, it is replaced by the name of the
program. Actually, if you don't use C<%options>, you can even
elide the empty C<$location>. Thus
msg 'fatal', '', 'fatal error';
msg 'fatal', 'fatal error';
both print
progname: fatal error
=cut

Override the options of C<$channel> with those specified by C<%options>.

with those specified by C<%options>.

if $channels{$channel}{'type'} eq $type;
}
}
=item C<dup_channel_setup ()>, C<drop_channel_setup ()>
Sometimes it is necessary to make temporary modifications to channels.
For instance one may want to disable a warning while processing a
particular file, and then restore the initial setup. These two
functions make it easy: C<dup_channel_setup ()> saves a copy of the
current configuration for later restoration by
C<drop_channel_setup ()>.
You can think of this as a stack of configurations whose first entry
is the active one. C<dup_channel_setup ()> duplicates the first
entry, while C<drop_channel_setup ()> just deletes it.
=cut

}
push @_saved_channels, \%channels_copy;
}
sub drop_channel_setup ()
{
my $saved = pop @_saved_channels;
%channels = %$saved;
}
=item C<buffer_messages (@types)>, C<flush_messages ()>
By default, when C<msg> is called, messages are processed immediately.
Sometimes it is necessary to delay the output of messages.
For instance you might want to make diagnostics before
channels have been completely configured.
After C<buffer_messages(@types)> has been called, messages sent with
C<msg> to a channel whose type is listed in C<@types> will be stored in a
list for later processing.
This backlog of messages is processed when C<flush_messages> is
called, with the current channel options (not the options in effect,
at the time of C<msg>). So for instance if some channel was silenced
in the meantime, messages to this channels will not be print.
C<flush_messages> cancels the effect of C<buffer_messages>. Following
calls to C<msg> are processed immediately as usual.
