Description
This class represents a log message that is sent through a chain of log channels.
A Message contains a priority denoting the severity of the message, a source describing its origin, a text describing its meaning, the time of its creation, and an identifier of the process and thread that created the message.
A Message can also contain any number of named parameters that contain additional information about the event that caused the message.

Types
StringMap 
typedef std::map < std::string, std::string > StringMap;
Enumerations
Priority
PRIO_FATAL = 1
A fatal error. The application will most likely terminate. This is the highest priority.
A critical error. The application might not be able to continue running successfully.
An error. An operation did not complete successfully, but the application as a whole is not affected.
A warning. An operation completed with an unexpected result.
A notice, which is an information with just a higher priority.
An informational message, usually denoting the successful completion of an operation.
A debugging message.
A tracing message. This is the lowest priority.
Constructors
Message
Message();
Creates an empty Message. The thread and process ids are set.
Message
Message(
const Message & msg
);
Creates a Message by copying another one.
Message
Message(
const Message & msg,
const std::string & text
);
Creates a Message by copying all but the text from another message.
Message
Message(
const std::string & source,
const std::string & text,
Priority prio
);
Creates a Message with the given source, text and priority. The thread and process ids are set.
Destructor
~Message
~Message();
Destroys the Message.
Member Functions
getPid 
long getPid() const;
Returns the process identifier for the message.
getPriority
Priority getPriority() const;
Returns the priority of the message.

const std::string & getSource() const;
Returns the source of the message.
getText
const std::string & getText() const;
Returns the text of the message.
getThread

getTime
const Timestamp & getTime() const;
Returns the time of the message.
operator
const std::string & operator[] (
const std::string & param
) const;
Returns a const reference to the value of the parameter with the given name. Throws a NotFoundException if the parameter does not exist.
operator

const std::string & param
);
Returns a reference to the value of the parameter with the given name. This can be used to set the parameter's value. If the parameter does not exist, it is created with an empty string value.
operator =
Message & operator = (

setPid
void setPid(
long pid
);
Sets the process identifier for the message.
setPriority
void setPriority(
Priority prio
);
Sets the priority of the message.
setSource
void setSource(
const std::string & src
);
Sets the source of the message.
setText
void setText(
const std::string & text
);
Sets the text of the message.
setThread
void setThread(
const std::string & thread
);
Sets the thread identifier for the message.
setTid

setTime
void setTime(
const Timestamp & time
);
Sets the time of the message.
swap
void swap(
Message & msg
);
Swaps the message with another one.
