log4mql

Log4mql is a mql4 (MetaQuotes MetaTrader 4 Language) library for flexible logging to files and the terminal console. It is modeled after the Log4j Java library.

Usage in your code

<pre><code> CLog4mql::getInstance().error(__FILE__, __LINE__, "Something unexpected happen"); or (for more frequent usage) CLog4mql* logger = CLog4mql::getInstance(); logger.error(__FILE__, __LINE__, "Something unexpected happen"); logger.info(__FILE__, __LINE__, "Calcumation done"); logger.debug(__FILE__, __LINE__, StringFormat("The result of %s is %d", string1, value1)); </code></pre>

Dont forget at the end of your EA / Indicator / Script:

<pre><code> CLog4mql::release(); or logger.release(); </code></pre>
