Notify
from panda3d.core import Notify
- class Notify
Bases:
An object that handles general error reporting to the user. It contains a pointer to an ostream, initially cerr, which can be reset at will to point to different output devices, according to the needs of the application. All output generated within Panda should vector through the Notify ostream.
This also includes a collection of Categories and Severities, which may be independently enabled or disabled, so that error messages may be squelched or respected according to the wishes of the user.
Inheritance diagram
- __init__()
- __init__(param0: Notify)
- clearAssertFailed()
Resets the assert_failed flag that is set whenever an assertion test fails. See
hasAssertFailed()
.
- clearAssertHandler()
Removes the installed assert handler and restores default behavior of nassertr() and nassertv().
- getAssertErrorMessage() str
Returns the error message that corresponds to the assertion that most recently failed.
- getAssertHandler()
Returns a pointer to the user-installed assert handler, if one was installed, or NULL otherwise.
- getCategory(fullname: str) NotifyCategory
Finds or creates a new Category given the fullname of the Category. This name should be a sequence of colon-separated names of parent Categories, ending in the basename of this Category, e.g. display:glxdisplay. This is a shorthand way to define a Category when a pointer to its parent is not handy.
- getCategory(basename: str, parent_category: NotifyCategory) NotifyCategory
Finds or creates a new Category given the basename of the category and its parent in the category hierarchy. The parent pointer may be NULL to indicate this is a top-level Category.
- getCategory(basename: str, parent_fullname: str) NotifyCategory
Finds or creates a new Category given the basename of the category and the fullname of its parent. This is another way to create a category when you don’t have a pointer to its parent handy, but you know the name of its parent. If the parent Category does not already exist, it will be created.
- getTopCategory() NotifyCategory
Returns the topmost Category in the hierarchy. This may be used to traverse the hierarchy of available Categories.
- hasAssertFailed() bool
Returns true if an assertion test has failed (and not been ignored) since the last call to
clearAssertFailed()
.When an assertion test fails, the assert handler may decide either to abort, return, or ignore the assertion. Naturally, if it decides to abort, this flag is irrelevant. If it chooses to ignore the assertion, the flag is not set. However, if the assert handler chooses to return out of the function (the normal case), it will also set this flag to indicate that an assertion failure has occurred.
This will also be the behavior in the absence of a user-defined assert handler.
- hasAssertHandler() bool
Returns true if a user assert handler has been installed, false otherwise.
- static null() ostream
A convenient way to get an ostream that doesn’t do anything. Returned by Category::out() when a particular Category and/or Severity is disabled.
- static out() ostream
A convenient way to get the ostream that should be written to for a Notify- type message. Also see Category::out() for a message that is specific to a particular Category.
