Demonstrates EnterContext and LeaveContext using the Chilkat Log API. Xojo Plugin

Dim log As New Chilkat.Log

// 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:
System.DebugLog(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
