module stdlib_logger
!!### Module stdlib_logger
!!
!! This module defines a derived type, procedures, a variable, and
!! constants to be used for logging information and reporting errors
!! in Fortran applications.
!!([Specification](../page/specs/stdlib_logger.html))

!! The derived type, `logger_type`, is to be used to define variables to
!! serve as both local and global loggers. A logger directs its messages
!! to selected I/O units so the user has a record (a log) of major events.
!! For each entity of `logger_type` the reports go to a list of I/O units
!! represented by the private internal array, `log_units`. If `log_units` is
!! empty then output by default goes to `output_unit`. Otherwise reports
!! go to `output_unit` only if it has been explicitly added to `log_units`.
!! Each entity of type `logger_type` also maintains an internal state
!! controlling the formatting of output.
!!
!! The procedures are as follows. The logical function
!! `log_units_assigned` returns the number of I/O units in `log_units`. The
!! subroutines `add_log_file` and `add_log_unit` include the specified file
!! in `log_units`. `remove_log_units` removes the specified logical unit from
!! the `log_units` array and optionally closes the file. `configure`
!! configures the details of the logging process. `configuration`
!! reports the details of that configuration. The subroutines
!! `log_error`, `log_information`, `log_io_error`, `log_message`,
!! `log_text_error`, and `log_warning` send messages to the log units.
!!
!! The variable `global_logger` of type `logger_type` can be used
!! as a default global logger anywhere in the source code.
!!
!! The constants are used to report errors by some of the subroutines
!! in their optional `stat` arguments. The constants are as follows.
!! `success` indicates that no error has occurred. `close_failure`
!! indicates that a `close` statement for an I/O unit failed.
!! `index_invalid_error` indicates that `column` was invalid for
!! the given `line`. `open_failure` indicates that an `open` statement
!! failed. `read_only_error` indicates that an output unit did not have a
!! `"write"` or `"readwrite"` action. `non_sequential_error` indicates
!! that the unit did not have `sequential` access. `unformatted_in_error`
!! indicates that the unit did not have a `form` of `"formatted"`.
!! `unopened_in_error` indicates that the unit was not opened. `write_failure`
!! indicates that at least one of the writes to `log_units` failed.

!! 2. `indent` is a logical flag with `.true.` implying that subsequent lines
!!    will be indented 4 spaces and `.false.` implying no indentation. `indent`
