I'm using Boost(1.55.0) Logging in my C++ application. I have been able to generate log of this format
[2014-Jul-15 10:47:26.137959]: <debug> A regular message
I want to be able to add source file name and line number where the log is generated.
[2014-Jul-15 10:47:26.137959]: <debug> [filename:line_no] A regular message
example:
[2014-Jul-15 10:47:26.137959]: <debug> [helloworld.cpp : 12] A regular message

As Horus pointed out, you can use attributes to log file and line numbers. However it is best to avoid using multi-statements macros to avoid problems with expressions like this:
if (something)
LOG_FILE_LINE(debug) << "It's true"; // Only the first statement is conditional!
You can do better creating a macro that leverages the underlying behavior of the Boost Log library. For example, BOOST_LOG_SEV is:
#define BOOST_LOG_SEV(logger, lvl) BOOST_LOG_STREAM_SEV(logger, lvl)
#define BOOST_LOG_STREAM_SEV(logger, lvl)\
BOOST_LOG_STREAM_WITH_PARAMS((logger), (::boost::log::keywords::severity = (lvl)))
Using BOOST_LOG_STREAM_WITH_PARAMS you can set and get more attributes, like this:
// New macro that includes severity, filename and line number
#define CUSTOM_LOG(logger, sev) \
BOOST_LOG_STREAM_WITH_PARAMS( \
(logger), \
(set_get_attrib("File", path_to_filename(__FILE__))) \
(set_get_attrib("Line", __LINE__)) \
(::boost::log::keywords::severity = (boost::log::trivial::sev)) \
)
// Set attribute and return the new value
template<typename ValueType>
ValueType set_get_attrib(const char* name, ValueType value) {
auto attr = logging::attribute_cast<attrs::mutable_constant<ValueType>>(logging::core::get()->get_thread_attributes()[name]);
attr.set(value);
return attr.get();
}
// Convert file path to only the filename
std::string path_to_filename(std::string path) {
return path.substr(path.find_last_of("/\\")+1);
}

return attr.get();
}
// Convert file path to only the filename
std::string path_to_filename(std::string path) {
return path.substr(path.find_last_of("/\\")+1);
}
void init() {
// New attributes that hold filename and line number
logging::core::get()->add_thread_attribute("File", attrs::mutable_constant<std::string>(""));
logging::core::get()->add_thread_attribute("Line", attrs::mutable_constant<int>(0));
logging::add_file_log (
keywords::file_name = "sample.log",
keywords::format = (
expr::stream
<< expr::format_date_time<boost::posix_time::ptime>("TimeStamp", "%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%S.%f")
<< ": <" << boost::log::trivial::severity << "> "
<< '[' << expr::attr<std::string>("File")

}
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
init();
src::severity_logger<logging::trivial::severity_level> lg;
CUSTOM_LOG(lg, debug) << "A regular message";
return 0;
}
This generate a log like this:
2015-10-15_15:25:12.743153: <debug> [main.cpp:61] A regular message
As user2943014 pointed out, using scopes prints the line number where you opened that scope, not the line number where you emitted a log message using BOOST_LOG_SEV.
You can use attributes to log the line numbers etc at the place you actually logged.
Register global attributes in your logging initialization function:
using namespace boost::log;
core::get()->add_global_attribute("Line", attributes::mutable_constant<int>(5));
core::get()->add_global_attribute("File", attributes::mutable_constant<std::string>(""));
core::get()->add_global_attribute("Function", attributes::mutable_constant<std::string>(""));
Setting these attributes in your logging macro:
#define logInfo(methodname, message) \
LOG_LOCATION; \
BOOST_LOG_SEV(_log, boost::log::trivial::severity_level::trace) << message
#define LOG_LOCATION \
boost::log::attribute_cast<boost::log::attributes::mutable_constant<int>>(boost::log::core::get()->get_global_attributes()["Line"]).set(__LINE__); \
boost::log::attribute_cast<boost::log::attributes::mutable_constant<std::string>>(boost::log::core::get()->get_global_attributes()["File"]).set(__FILE__); \
boost::log::attribute_cast<boost::log::attributes::mutable_constant<std::string>>(boost::log::core::get()->get_global_attributes()["Function"]).set(__func__);
Not exactly beautiful, but it works and it was a long way for me. It's a pity boost doesn't offer this feature out of the box.
Define
namespace attrs = boost::logging::attributes;
namespace expr = boost::logging::expressions;
Add
<< expr::format_named_scope("Scope", keywords::format = "[%f:%l]")
to your keywords::format = (...) in init.
Then add
logging::core::get()->add_global_attribute("Scope", attrs::named_scope());
after add_common_attributes() in main.
Then just before the BOOST_LOG_SEV line add BOOST_LOG_NAMED_SCOPE("whatever").
BOOST_LOG_NAMED_SCOPE("whatever") creates a "scope" named "whatever". The scope is implemented by a unused variable that contains the scope name and the file and the line where the scope was defined.
The format_named_scope line specifies how a scope should be formatted in the log line. %f is the file, %l is the line and %n is the scope name.
Note that the file line that appears in the log record is the line where the macro BOOST_LOG_NAMED_SCOPE appears and not the line of the BOOST_LOG_SEV macro.
I am not aware of simple method to record the file and line without using the BOOST_LOG_NAMED_SCOPE.
I would suggest to use the boost::log::add_value() function.
Define:
#define LOG_LOCATION(LEVEL, MSG) \
BOOST_LOG_SEV(logger::get(), LEVEL) \
<< boost::log::add_value("Line", __LINE__) \
<< boost::log::add_value("File", __FILE__) \
<< boost::log::add_value("Function", __FUNCTION__) << MSG
And then you can format it as follows:
boost::log::add_common_attributes();
boost::log::register_simple_filter_factory<boost::log::trivial::severity_level, char>("Severity");
boost::log::register_simple_formatter_factory<boost::log::trivial::severity_level, char>("Severity");
auto syslog_format(
boost::log::expressions::stream <<
"[" << boost::log::expressions::format_date_time< boost::posix_time::ptime >("TimeStamp", "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S") <<
"] [" << boost::log::expressions::attr<boost::log::attributes::current_thread_id::value_type>("ThreadID") <<
"] [" << std::left << std::setw(7) << std::setfill(' ') << boost::log::trivial::severity <<
"] " << boost::log::expressions::smessage <<
" (" << boost::log::expressions::attr<std::string>("Filename") <<
":" << boost::log::expressions::attr<int>("Line") <<
":" << boost::log::expressions::attr<std::string>("Function") <<
")"
);
boost::log::add_file_log(
boost::log::keywords::file_name = "sys_%d_%m_%Y.%N.log",
boost::log::keywords::format = syslog_format
);
No need to add global attributes, and you can format it easily as seen above. I find this is a good compromise between other's solutions and the raw __FILE__ __LINE__ approach.
Full example here.
