cppDbg defines some useful debugging macros, which e.g. contain the current time and date or the current line.
The below statements will be printed via std::cout iff CPPDBG is defined before including cppDbg.h.
bool b = true;
char c = 'c';
int i = 5;
float f = 13.3;
double d = 17.3;
//STATEMENT // OUTPUT
//print value of variables
DBG(b); // b = 1
DBG(c); // c = 'c'
DBG(i); // i = 5
DBG(f); // f = 13.3
DBG(d); // d = 17.3
//add more information
//suffix F for (F)ilename
DBGF(b); // b = 1 (File: example.cpp)
//suffix L for (L)ine number
DBGL(b); // b = 1 (Line: x)
//suffix LF for (L)ine number and (F)ilename
DBGLF(b); // b = 1 (Line x in example.cpp)
//adding a T as first suffix will also print the time
DBGT(b); // (13:37:00) b = 1
DBGTF(b); // (13:37:00) b = 1 (File: example.cpp)
DBGTL(b); // (13:37:00) b = 1 (Line: x)
DBGTLF(b); // (13:37:00) b = 1 (Line x in example.cpp)
//adding a DT as first suffix will print date and time
DBGDT(b); // (May 8 2015 -- 13:37:00) b = 1
DBGDTF(b); // (May 8 2015 -- 13:37:00) b = 1 (File: example.cpp)
DBGDTL(b); // (May 8 2015 -- 13:37:00) b = 1 (Line: x)
DBGDTLF(b); // (May 8 2015 -- 13:37:00) b = 1 (Line x in example.cpp)
