Description

Facility for collecting diagnostic context information explicitly.

Unlike a trace logging run, this facility is intended to be fed explicitly with diagnostic information describing the currently ongoing operation in a semantic high-level manner. The rationale is to pinpoint those pieces of information, which aren't obvious when just looking at a callstack with the debugger. Instances of the class DiagnosticContext should be placed explicitly as automatic (stack) variable into selected relevant scopes; these "information frames" could be accessed from an enclosed scope as a per-thread stack. DiagnosticContext provides an controlled environment for adding diagnostic code on demand; typically to be configured such as to resolve into an empty class for release builds.
