If I recall your library requires a lib to be linked in. That's a deal breaker for me.
That is true, the library has to be compiled. If it is to support multi-module configuration with centralized logging control, I don't see how it could be done the other way.
This is slightly off-topic but I think that Boost would have been much better collection of libs if from the beginning it had adopted a policy of placing as much code as possible in cpp files. Besides the simple fact that this approach would have drastically reduced the amount of code visible to users, it would have also affected the way libraries are designed. If anyone cares whether a library is header-only or not, they need a better build system. :) Emil Dotchevski Reverge Studios, Inc. http://www.revergestudios.com/reblog/index.php?n=ReCode
