Error handling
Omega includes an error handling facility that checks for potential errors and responds to those errors when encountered. It uses the Logging facility for writing the error messages so its behavior follows that of Logging. In particular, the error messages will be output to a single log file (omega.log) unless the option to write a log file for each MPI task is enabled at build time. Each message will have the format
[*level] [file:line number] error message
where level is the severity (warn, error, critical) and file and line number
refer to the source code line where the error occurs. The error facility
sometimes accumulates multiple error messages before aborting. In
these cases, the most recent error in these accumulated errors will be printed
first and the other error messages in the chain will be printed in reverse
order and indented. For critical errors, a full stack trace is generated
if debug information is available, either with the -g
compiler
option or a DEBUG build using -DOMEGA_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
during the Cmake
configuration.
