/**
 * Class REPORTER
 * is a pure virtual class used to derive REPORTER objects from.
 *
 * The purpose of the REPORTER object is to offer a way for a procedural function
 * to report multiple errors without having to:
 * <ul>
 * <li> know too much about the caller's UI, i.e. wx. </li>
 * <li> stop after the first error </li>
 * </ul>
 * the reporter has 4 severity levels (flags) tagging the messages:
 * - information
 * - warning
 * - error
 * - action (i.e. indication of changes - add component, change footprint, etc. )
 * They are indicators for the message formatting and displaying code,
 * filtering is not made here.
