I may have done a bit of programming and created a very simple logging system for my personal project. While it works well so far, I'd love any suggestions on how to improve its behavior and what I can do to make it more useful in general.

Key questions include:


  1. Is my code thread safe? If not, how can I make it thread safe?

  2. Is there a way to make the interface more user-friendly? Now#definitionIt feels a bit strange.

  3. Is there a way to avoid using the globalsingle_ptr?

  4. Should I make this a header only library? Are there any advantages to this?

.hpp:

code:

#pragma once/* Use this header by including it in every file you need and start a new record in your main function. Logger::startLog("Log.txt"); Use different error levels by naming them and simply passing the information and what you want to print. Logger::log(ERROR, "Something went wrong.");*/// For unique pointers. #include// Tok datoteke。#include// Array class for name and passed parameters. #include#define FATAL Logger::Level::Fatal#define ERROR Logger::Level::Error#define WARNING Logger::Level::Warning#define INFO Logger::Level::Info#define DEBUG Logger::Level::Debugnamespace Logger { // Enumeration of severity levels. enum classLevel {fatal, error, warning, info, debug}; // Initialize the record. void startLog(const std::string& filepath); // Message record. void log(Level s, const std::string& msg); // record class. class Log { public: Log(const std::string& filepath); void addLog(Level s, const std::string& msg); ~log(); private:// Logging file. std::ofstream m_logfile; std::string levels[5] = {"fatal", "error", "warning", "info", "debug"}; };}

.cpp:

code:

#include "Log.hpp"namespace Logger { // Objeto de global registro. std::unique_ptrg_log; // Inicializar nuestro objeto de registro. void startLog(const std::string&filepath) { g_log = std::make_unique(file path); Logger::log(Level::Info, "Start logging system."); } //Registration method. void log(Level s, const std::string& msg) { g_log->addLog(s, msg); } // Create our global registry object. Log::Log(const std::string& filepath) : m_logfile{} { m_logfile.open(filepath); } // Adding a message to our log. void Log::addLog(Level s, const std::string& msg) { if (m_logfile.is_open()) { m_logfile << levels[static_cast(s)] << ": " << msg << std :: end; } } Log::~Log() { addLog(Level::Info, "Logging system stopped."); m_logfile.close(); }}

Is it possible to embed $\mathrm{Sp}_{2m}(p)\leqslant S_{p^m-1}$?

  • Answer: 0

Is it possible to make the following installations?

$\mathrm{Sp}_{2m}(p)\leqslant S_{p^m-1}$ where $S_{p^m-1}$ is a symmetry group and $p$ is a prime number. I see that when $p=3$ and $m=3$, the order of the former divides the order of the latter.

Thank you.

Implementation of logging system in C++17 (1)

sugarJune 1, 2023

A few weeks ago, Nothing founder Carl Pei confirmed that the Phone (2), arriving in July,It will be powered by Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC.Recently Pei stated that Nothing Phone (2)It includes a 4,700 mAh battery, greater than 200 mAhphone (1)Cell. Now the company has revealed the phone's screen size (2).

The screen of the Nothing Phone (2) will be 0.15 inches larger than the screen of the Phone (1), with a diagonal of 6.7 inches. While Nothing hasn't revealed its resolution, it's likely to be FullHD+ like the phone's panel (1).

In addition, nothing says that the phone (2) has a carbon footprint of 53.45 kg, which is more than 5 kg less than the phone (1). The young brand also says that the phone (2) uses 3 times more bio-based or recycled components than the phone (1) and that the retail packaging is plastic-free.

no no no why? 6.1 inches is enough, why are the big manufacturers pushing mobile phones with large screens (6.7 inches or more)? If you say it's all about battery life, look no further than the Zenfone 9...

Beginner's problem: adding a flag affects the triode circuit

Thanks to the help of this community, I was able to build the following transistor circuit (detailshere, many thanks @mathkeepsmebusy):

Implementation of logging system in C++17 (4)

The circuit works and the LED lights up according to the temperature of the thermistor.

Next I need to add an indicator to show the temperature of the thermistor. i useVDO brodski instrumenti, here is the wiring diagram for reference:

Implementation of logging system in C++17 (5)

My thermistor has one terminal with the body grounded as shown in the "standard ground" diagram in the picture.

I tested the gauge by connecting the signal wire to ground through a resistor and the gauge showed the correct temperature reading. However, when I connect the signal wire to the upper circuit at test point \$TP\$, the circuit stops working and the meter reads incorrectly compared to the resistance indicated by the thermistor.

(Video) Logging in Python || Learn Python Programming (Computer Science)

My understanding is that the meter is an active component whose signal wire interferes with the voltage you connect to the base of the first transistor.

My question is how should I "isolate" the meter from the circuit (and vice versa) so that the meter reads correctly and the circuit turns on the LED correctly?

Thanks in advance!

PCIe to Thunderbolt connection issues

  • Answer: 0

I have a custom board (using FPGA with PCIe IP) with a PCIe (gen2 4 lane) connection, I use an external device that connects PCIe to NVMe, then I use NVMe to connect to the Thunderbolt module. As follows:

Implementation of logging system in C++17 (6)
series 1

The problem I'm having is that custom board #1 and the setup driver for custom board #1 are recognized in device manager, and the same custom board #1 is also recognized as a PCIe connection directly to the PC as configuration #2. Testing custom board #2 of configuration #1, we see that the custom board is not recognized in device manager, but when testing configuration #2, the personalized board is recognized.

Implementation of logging system in C++17 (7)
Set #2

Why is one board recognized as directly connected to the computer but not working with the Thunderbolt configuration, while the other board works with both configurations?

Any suggestion is appreciated.

I am setting up an EMC test device and have a spectrum analyzer (SA): Rohde and Schwarz FPL 1003 spectrum analyzer. I'm trying to do some preliminary testing to make sure what I'm seeing in the parser is correct.

(Video) Login System with Registration & Filestoring & Filesystem C++ Tutorial Visual Studio

To do this, I send a sine wave of a certain frequency (100 kHz) and amplitude (2 V p-p) to the SA from the function generator and control the output.

Output: Fundamental (100 kHz) and higher frequencies match the spectrum seen in SA. However, the size seen is quite different.

The function generator now has 3 "Load Settings" options: 1. 50 ohms 2. High Z and 3. Load

In high impedance configuration: i/p: 2Vp-p, ie 0 to 1 Vpk || o/p (in SA): 353 mV

In 50 ohm configuration: i/p: same || o/p (in SA): 671 mV

In load setting: i/p: same || o/p (in SA): 671 mV

Am I missing something to not get the correct 1V output on the spectrum analyzer?

As a result, our gardens and front yards become very waterlogged after heavy rains. My brother bought an AC submersible pump in the market, small things (it sits in the palm of my hand), with low flow (Possibly 4-6 liters per minute), not sophisticated (Cheap, when you buy something and ask the owner about the "guarantee", he just looks at you as if that word hurts him.) But the wire that came with it was pretty short, so we connected a longer wire and put electrical tape on it. Now I was shocked when I discovered this device and saw that the knuckles were submerged in water and we often got into it without getting shocked. What's going on here? Do we insulate it so well that not a single drop of water touches the bare metal wire, or is there something else to be thankful for?

I know from my undergraduate courses that real power flows from the bus with the higher power angle \$\delta\$ to the bus with the lower power angle. If I want to reverse the direction of the power flow, I now have to increase the power angle of the bus with the lower power angle.

How would you achieve this reversal of energy flow? How to increase the power angle on the bus?
