By default, severity is printed as integer. What's the easiest way to print the corresponding string (e.g. "info" for severity 0, "warn" for severity 1, and so on)?
I tried defining operator<< for my severity enum, but attr<severity_level> doesn't work; that is, the output operator doesn't get invoked (I assume because attribute "Severity" is internally of type "int" and not of my enum type).
Yes, the severity level is stored as an int, and therefore the attr formatter uses operator<< for ints. Right now you can either define your own formatter that will accept an int and transform it into a string, or develop your own attribute and logger to store the level as an enum (then the attr formatter should be used with explicitly specified enum type). I haven't decided yet how to solve this problem best in the library.
