# Debugging utils for proxy module tester
# Andrew V. Purshottam 17 Jun 2004
# to do:
# - evolve this into proper module with exporter and other crap (done)
# - create kind of shared poe utils for your poe stuff.
# - move design discussion and debugging levels into a POD
# - create symbolic constants for levels.

# dbprint is designed to run from inside or outside
# a poe session, with or without a $heap->{self}->{name}
# I really do not understand Perl and POE well enough
# to write a good debug print subroutine, if you have better one
# _that works nicely with POE sessions_, please
# mail it to me or submit it against this source
# as a feature improvement (once I get this crap up
# on source forge or similar.)

# debug levels
# -1 - not used as arg to dbprint, so used as debug level means print nothing ever.
# 0  - error, print even when not debugging
# 1  - lifecycle trace events, generally only happen once
# 2  - per "line" or user event type events
# 3  - repeated stuff that can happen many times per run
# 4  - per character or similar can happen lots of times (eg per char)
# 5-20  - tedious inner loop of algorithm or nasty dumps
# 100 - only turn on in emergency lots of crap, recursive dump of strutures

# dbprint($level_num, exp ...) - print debugging info
$main::debug_level = 0; # shutup by default.

# with helpful context prefix if $level <= $main::debug_level
sub dbprint {
  my $level = shift;
  return unless $level <= $main::debug_level;
  # yeah this context grabbing crap is awful, maybe someday
  # I will make more beautiful, or maybe a decent perl OO / introspection
  # system will make it unnecessary (as it is almost in python).
