Please add a 'ShowSource' option to the Formatter class

[israel sadeh]

Hi,

Currently (as far as I understand) the only way to disable the
printing of the file name and line number are by overriding the
Formatter class.
Since these disabling is quite common, I suggest adding the following
methods to the Formatter class:
SetShowFileNameAndLine()
GetShowFileNameAndLine()
(just like it is oalready done regarding showing the time).

Thanks.

Hi Israel,

I acknowledge that people will want to format their output in many different ways.  This was the original intention of the Formatter class, so that you can simply instantiate a custom formatter and render the log output in whatever format you like.

In order to make your specific example easier, I just implemented a GetTopicFlags() functions in the default Formatter which can be overridden by child classes.  Additionally, I wrote a complete example that shows how to use this function to do exactly what you're requesting.

Please see  http://johnwbyrd.github.com/logog/customformatting.html  , download the latest code, and let me know if that works for you.  Thanks.
