Dear boosters, Finally, have had some time to update the logging lib. Get it from: http://www.torjo.com/ (of course, it comes packed with docs) First of all, many thanks to Darryl Green and Caleb Epstein! Summary - solved a few bugs - redesigned so that I allow for scoped logs (no more log IDs, now logs are identified by a 'string name') - ported the code from Caleb - allow for a "log manager" (many thanks to Darryl Green!) (it is not documented yet, but will do so as soon as I have some time) - updated docs - (renaming) add_modifier_func -> add_modifier (renaming) add_logger_func -> add_appender - thread-safety update (again, many thanks to Darryl Green!) - you can log messages even *before* logs are initialized after logs are initialized, just call flush_log_cache(); As for scoped logs, to make a long story short, you'll be able to do: logger gui("app.gui") if (gui) gui.stream() << "something GUIsh"; // or (equivalent) BOOOST_SCOPEDLOG(gui) << "something GUIsh"; Still to do: - docs: write about log managers - cyclic logs Looking forward to your feedback! Best, John -- John Torjo, Contributing editor, C/C++ Users Journal -- "Win32 GUI Generics" -- generics & GUI do mix, after all -- http://www.torjo.com/win32gui/ -- v1.5 - tooltips at your fingertips (work for menus too!) + bitmap buttons (work for MessageBox too!) + tab dialogs, hyper links, lite html
