Dongle/DebugPrint API
Last wiki revision 2007-06-07
Dongle provides very basic debug and print utility functions to its objects. These come in a number of flavors, detailed below.
This API was introduced with Dongle-1.0
Enables debugging for DongleObject at level, output being sent to frame.
- level (number) - The debug level to enable. Any messages <= to this level will be displayed.
- frame (table) - The chat frame to send the output to. This can be any object with an "AddMessage" method, in all actuality.
- debugLevel - The current debugLevel of the DongleObject or nil.
- debugFrame - The current debugFrame of the DongleObject or nil.
Sends the message to the debug chat frame (or DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME). If extra arguments are supplied, the arguments are all tostring'd and concatenated together with comma separators.
- msg (string, boolean, table, function, thread, userdata) - The object to print
- ... - Any amount of objects to be printed, including nil
Sends the formatted message to the debug chat frame (or DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME). This function expects a format string, and potentially a number of arguments.
- msg (string) - The string to pass to string.format
- ... - The arguments to be passed to string.format
