During development of last product I was missing good C++ logging library like one available in Java. I had to write it myself. Does somebody think that it will be useful to have it in Boost? Or there is such one in development? Sincerely yours, Maksym Motornyy.

Several projects related to logging have been mentioned recently (see message below). I'm about to throw another in the ring which could be used for primitive logging, although it's primary focus lies elsewhere. The basic concept of logging is simple enough, but the wide range of useful implementation variations makes it really hard to envision a solid "one-size-fits-all" system. It may make sense to start working on a common set of patterns for a logging system interface, which could be used to consistently encapsulate many different implementations. This same issue came up in a discussion with Brian Baatz on profiling. Developing such an interface should be challenging enough, even without specifying implementation, but it's a more manageable first step. It also seems like a good way to foster cooperation among the various projects while allowing a healthy level of diversity, ideally improving the consistency over time for "early-adopters" of specific projects. - james -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [boost] Log utility Date: Fri, 11 Mar 2005 11:03:10 -0500 From: John Eddy <johneddy@eng.buffalo.edu> Reply-To: boost@lists.boost.org To: boost@lists.boost.org References: <E1D9cBI-0005Bt-AA@smtp.mailix.net> <989aceac05031105184447c3b5@mail.gmail.com> I am still working towards improving my library.

I wrote a logging library using boost libraries and other standard C++ functions. I'm fairly satisfied with it and using in my own product. I think it'd be a good addition to Boost. What do you all think?
There have been several discussion threads about a Boost Logging facility in recent months, and at least two implementations, among them:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/112436 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/118005
Perhaps you'd care to discuss your design and/or post some code?
