// Implementation details concerning SENF_LOG_CLASS_AREA
//
// The SENF_LOG_CLASS_AREA statement shall declare the containing class as it's own default area. Of
// course, we cannot make the containing class into an area. Therefore we need to trick around a bit:
//
// We begin by defining an area SENFLogArea with in the class. This area however is hacked, so that
// it's name() member will return the name of the containing class (which is simple: just cut of the
// last couple of characters of the name since the name will always end in '::SENFLogArea').
//
// This however does not allow the use of the containing class as an area. There are several places
// which need to be adjusted to allow using the containing class as an area: The logging statements
// (SENF_LOG), the compile time configuration via SENF_LOG_CONF and the runtime configuration via
// route statements.
//
// Lets begin with the compile time configuration. The compile time configuration is done using
// specialization of the senf::log::detail::Config template. This doesn't care, what the area
// template argument really is. Therefore, compile-time configuration just uses the containing class
// as is. So we need to make sure, that the logging statements use the containing class when
// checking the compile-time limit whereas they need to use the nested SENFLogArea when calling the
// targets.
//
// So let's look at the logging statements. The central logic for parsing the logging parameters is
// in SENF_LOG_MERGE_PARAMETERS in Parameters.ih. Here we have a special case which detects classes
// with a SENFLogArea member and then set's things up correctly: It uses the containing class for
// compile time checking (this is, what 'area_base' typedef is for) while using the nested
// SENFLogArea for routing (this is, what the 'area' typedef is for).
//
// So the last thing which needs to be adjusted is the routing which is part of the Target
// class. Here for each template taking an area as an argument we really provide TWO templates, one
// taking the area directly, the other checking for a nested SENFLogArea member. We can
// differentiate these overloads using boost::enable_if and friends.
//
// This setup makes a class with SENF_LOG_CLASS_AREA() look like an ordinary area even though the
// implementation is somewhat different.
