What's nice about the Poco library (I just had a quick look at the documentation) that it seems to support various platform-specific logging facilities. That would be another strong reason for me to use a logging library instead of simply writing messages to a file myself.
Poco also has filters, splitters (for sending one message to various sinks), log rotation with optional compression, asynchronous logging and a lot of more stuff I haven't used yet. The features are quite cool. And certainly a thousand times better than simply writing to a file... I'd love to have that functionality "boostified" :-) (Shame on me, I have not looked at http://boost-log.sourceforge.net/ in detail, so I cannot really tell if that would meet my expectations) Regards, Roland
