Module Make ()

Debug.Make produces a debug function used to wrap a function to display arguments before calling and display results after returning. Intended usage is:


      module Foo = struct
        type t = ...
          let invariant = ...
            let bar t x y : Result.t = ...
      end
      module Foo_debug = struct
        open Foo
        include Debug.Make ()
        let debug x = debug invariant ~module_name:"Foo" x
        let bar t x y =
          debug "bar" [t] (t, x, y) <:sexp_of< t * X.t * Y.t >> <:sexp_of< Result.t >>
            (fun () -> bar t x y)
      end
    

Parameters

Signature

val check_invariant : bool Pervasives.ref

Whether the invariants are called on each invocation

val show_messages : bool Pervasives.ref

If true, you get a message on stderr every time debug is called

val debug : 't Core_kernel.Invariant.t -> module_name:string -> string -> 't list -> 'args -> ('args -> Sexplib.Sexp.t) -> ('result -> Sexplib.Sexp.t) -> (unit -> 'result) -> 'result

We avoid labels so that the applications are more concise -- see example above
