Enter/Leave Context in Logging

Demonstrates EnterContext and LeaveContext using the Chilkat Log API. Visual Basic 6.0

Dim log As New ChilkatLog

' Initialize the log object with an initial context tag:
log.Clear "myLog"

' Add some information..
log.LogInfo "Hello, I'm here..."

' Open a sub-context
log.EnterContext "abc"

' New information is now logged within the "abc" context.
log.LogInfo "This is inside the abc context"
log.LogError "File not found."

' Perhaps open a new context...
log.EnterContext "fileInfo"
log.LogData "filename","something.txt"
log.LogData "path","/somedir/xyz"
log.LeaveContext 

' Close the "abc" context.
log.LeaveContext 

' Examine the content of the log:
Debug.Print log.LastErrorText

' This is the output:

' myLog:
'   Hello, I'm here...
'   abc:
'     This is inside the abc context
'     File not found.
'     fileInfo:
'       filename: something.txt
'       path: /somedir/xyz
'     --fileInfo
'   --abc
' --myLog
