Hi Vincent,

Thanks for pointing out the bug.

You are correct.  Function and variable declarations after 
igstkLoggerMacro declaration
are part of the public class interface. We don't want this behavior 
since the macro is
declared in the private class interface.

I have moved the macro to the public interface so that by default 
everything after
this macro declaration will be part of the public interface.

Thanks again...that was a good catch!
