All 3.10 3.9 3.8
Debug block for the message passing system.
The message debug block is used to capture and print or store messages as they are received. Any block that generates a message may connect that message port to one or more of the three message input ports of this debug block.
Parameters
(R): Run-time adjustable
Added in 3.9
- PDU Vectors (R)
- On or Off - determines if the uniform vector is printed or not.
Version 3.8
- None
Version 3.11, 3.10.6++
- Log level
- Sets the "log" input's log level to trace, debug, info, warning, error or critical
Messages
Inputs
Versions 3.11 (and >3.10.6.1)
- log
- Logs all messages to the logging system (which by default prints it to your console). Generally, this is preferred over the "print" input.
- Prints all messages to standard out. If the message is a PDU, it will receive special formatting and the
PDU Vectorsblock parameter will determine if the uniform vector is printed or not. - store
- Stores the message in an internal vector. It works in conjunction with a message_debug::get_message(size_t i) call that allows us to retrieve message i afterward.
- print_pdu
- PDU messages are redirected to the
printport. This is included for compatibility and is no longer recommended for use.
Versions 3.9 and 3.10
- Prints all messages to standard out. If the message is a PDU, it will receive special formatting and the
PDU Vectorsblock parameter will determine if the uniform vector is printed or not. - store
- Stores the message in an internal vector. It works in conjunction with a message_debug::get_message(size_t i) call that allows us to retrieve message i afterward.
- print_pdu
- PDU messages are redirected to the
printport. This is included for compatibility and is no longer recommended for use.
Version 3.8
- Prints the message to standard out.
- store
- Stores the message in an internal vector. It works in conjunction with a message_debug::get_message(size_t i) call that allows us to retrieve message i afterward.
- print_pdu
- Specifically designed to handle formatted PDUs (see pdu.h). It discards messages that aren't PDU pairs (or are null).
Example Flowgraph
In this example, a Message Strobe block sends the string "Demo" once per second. It is displayed on the user terminal by the Message Debug block.
