AddInLogMsg - Format and write a message to the log file (uses string resources).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <addin.h>
void LNPUBLIC AddInLogMsg(
STATUS StringID,
char far *Arg);
Description :
AddInLogMsg formats an error message, displays it on the standard output, and appends the message as new line to the "Events" field in a Miscellaneous Events document in the Domino server or Notes client log. The generated message has the form:
<DATE> <TIME> <status message>
The first parameter, StringID, is a resource ID. It must identify a string resource located in the calling program's resource module. The string specified by StringID may contain one printf-type format specifier. If it does, the second parameter, Arg, must point to a printf-type argument that resolves the format specifier. Only one format specifier argument is supported in this function. Use AddInLogMessage if more than one format specifier argument is needed. The print format specifiers supported by Domino are described in the TechNote "Domino Print Format Specifiers".
Use AddInLogMsg to log events that are not associated with a STATUS code returned from a C API function. AddInLogMsg is a macro that calls AddInLogError:
#define AddInLogMsg(s, e) AddInLogError(s, NOERROR, e)
AddInLogMsg may be called from a NotesMain, main, or AddInMain API program.
When using this function, you should call either AddInIdle or AddInIdleDelay on a regular basis to flush the log entries from memory to disk and free up the memory.
Parameters :
Input :
StringID - Resource ID of string to be formatted. The string may contain up to one printf-type (%) format specifier. If a format specifier is present, a second argument must be provided for formatting into the message string.
Arg - Pointer to an argument to be formatted into the printf-type (%) format specifier in the string specified by StringID. Specify NULL if the string contains no format specifier.
Output :
(routine) - None
Sample Usage :
/* #define MSG_SMKADDN_STARTED (PKG_ADDIN+11) */
/* msgtext(MSG_SMKADDN_STARTED, "Smoke Addin Example Started up") */
/* Log the task status: message appears on console display and */
/* in Miscellaneous "Events" View in the server's LOG.NSF */
AddInLogMsg(MSG_SMKADDN_STARTED);
