Scala off the record logging

gistfile1.scala

trait Logging {
 
 def offTheRecords[A](f: => A):A = {
    val lvl = loggingLevel // loggingLevel returns current logging leve;
    disableLogging()
    val result = f //invokes off-the-records function
    setLoggingLevel(lvl) //undo of the disableLogging call
    result
  }

}


usage:

class SimplePluginManagerSpec extends Specification{
  val testDir = new File(this.getClass.getResource("/plugin/PluginDefinitionLoading/plugins").toURI)
  val pm = new SimplePluginManager //class mixed with Logging trait

  "Simple plugin manager" should {
    "load plugins" in {
      pm.offTheRecords(
        {
          pm.bootupPlugins(testDir) must_== List[Plugin](new DummyPlugin) //expect exceptions being throw and logged, don't want to see that during testing so i shall silence it
        }
      )
    }
  }
