Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	addReportLine(String line) long reports that span many lines (such as stackTraces) may have intermediate calls to addReportLine before a call to endReport

Method Detail

report

void report(String report)

starts a trace and reports a String. Each "report" (mostly one line reports) is terminated by a call to endReport

Parameters:

report -

addReportLine

void addReportLine(String line)

long reports that span many lines (such as stackTraces) may have intermediate calls to addReportLine before a call to endReport

Parameters:

line -

endReport

void endReport()

marks the end of a trace (this can be used with implementations that use parenthesized expressions -such as XML-). it is guaranteed that each call to report is closed by a call to endReport (in the meantime many invocations to addReportLine may have been fired).
