we have a category creation standard in which we pass in the name of the creating class into the constructor of the created class and the created class appends its name to then end of the passed in category to come up with its own category name.
This way we keep categories based on the object creation rather than package or super class hierarchy. This is how we are interested in categorizing our code for debugging. This results in hundreds of categories being created depending on how many objects we create and unless we go through every new ObjectXYZ(cat,x,x,x) we won't know the category names up front. Anyone know of a way to discover these category names at compile time, or some complimentary way that makes it easy for us to figure out what the category names are? I know we can probably write some sort of shell script or perl to do regex stuff or lexical scan of the code and figure this out but that seems really hard to do. Wondering if anyone has similar setup or any suggestions on doing this. TIA j. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Try FREE Yahoo!
