message_prefix_file/6 — Logtalk 3.100.1

built-in method

# `message_prefix_file/6`

## Description

    message_prefix_file(Kind, Component, Prefix, File, Mode, Options)

Experimental user-defined hook method for specifying the prefix and file for copying messages for a given kind and component. This method is declared in the logtalk built-in object as a public, multifile, and dynamic predicate. The valid values for `Mode` are `write` and `append`. The valid options are the same as the standard `open/4` predicate.

The prefix is printed for each line in the list of tokens generated by the message tokenization (new lines are specified using the `nl` token; see the documentation of the logtalk built-in object for details).

## Modes and number of proofs

    message_prefix_file(?nonvar, ?nonvar, ?atom, ?atom, ?atom, ?list(compound)) - zero_or_more

## Errors

(none)

## Examples

    :- multifile(logtalk::message_prefix_file/6).
    :- dynamic(logtalk::message_prefix_file/6).

    logtalk::message_prefix_file(comment, app, '% ', 'comments.txt', append, []).
