This sounds like a job for the System.Diagnostics Trace and
TraceListener. It supports indenting, named output, pluggable listeners
and config files. Something like this...
import System.IO;
import System.Diagnostics;
void Setup()
{
Console.SetOut(new TraceTextWriter());
Trace.Listeners.Add(new TextWriterTraceListener(Console.Out));
// NOTE: XmlTraceListener doesn't exist yet
Trace.Listeners.Add(new XmlTraceListener("logfile.xml"));
}
void Example()
{
Trace.WriteLine("target-name", "target");
Trace.Indent();
Trace.WriteLine("some output", "taskname");
Trace.Indent();
Console.WriteLine("output from tool");
Trace.Unindent();
Trace.WriteLine("some more output", "taskname");
Trace.Unindent();
}
class TraceTextWriter : TextWriter
{
override public void WriteLine(string text)
{
Trace.WriteLine(text);
}
}
I've been using this stuff recently in a unit test runner I've been
writing for Visual Studio.NET. Thinking about it this component could
be made into a task for NAnt. At the moment it supports all 2.x
versions of NUnit, JUnit and I'm thinking of adding support for #Unit.
Is anyone using #Unit?
What do you reckon? Jamie.
